HI,
I am new here, but not necessarily new to quilting. I am about to put my next quilt in the frame and am wondering if anyone has ever used blanket stitches to quilt all the way through a quilt, not just embelish a crazy quilt. And, If you think it might work, would you use floss or quilting thread.

thanks,
Kerrie

i quilted my wool quilt with blanket stiches- i used perle cotton.
if you like the look of course you can- and you can also use what ever thread fits your project...be it embroidery floss- silk thread- wool thread===regular quilting thread- it is your choice.
