I did not have a clue how I was going to put it together, but it worked out.

Now I will put a flannel sheet on the back and tie it. I can't quilt this big of anything on my little machine and I do not think I can afford to have it quilted. I tied one other quilt. But I have never used a flannel sheet before.

I prefer to tie my quilts too
