Thank you for the compliments ladies.

I'll try quilting to the edge to make the edges firmer.

Do you mean to mount the quilt on a frame and then hang it on the wall?
That would certainly stabilize the sides, but wouldn't it make the quilt heavy?

I had thought of sewing flat dowels down the sides in the back to make it lie flat. Has anyone ever tried it?

How do you keep the binding fabric from stretching? My binding is always made on the bias, the most stretchable direction of the fabric. My next one won't use the bias, but will I still have the same problem?
