You made a beautiful quilt and I really like the prairie points. When it is washed the points will soften and not be so crisp, but if you want them crisp, a bit of spray starch should do the trick.

I agree.......this would also be a darling baby quilt. You did a fabulous job. I've washed prairie points before and some of them will bend a bit but they usually did fine. Mine were on baby quilts so I don't know if that makes a difference since they were small and didn't get so smushed in the dryer. Don't let that deter you from doing prairie points again though. They really add something to the right quilt. Great job......wish this was my quilt.........LOL

I love the quilt, beautiful. We had a quilt when I was young that my grandmother made that had points on the edge. They seemed to wash fine, There were a few wrinkles, but everything just blended with the whole quilt. I will look around and see if I still have that quilt (I'm thinking my sister took it). But if I do I will take a picture for you. Have a blessed day, and again beautiful job on this quilt.

I have used prairie points. The best way to keep them from coming apart is to very carefully blind stitch by hand the center of the points. If the points are all cotton, you shouldn't have a problem. if they don seem pointy enough after washing, spray sizing or starch along the edges and hand press. They will be fine.

Beautiful quilt. Hopefully the points will remain intact. Let us know.

A cute pattern, finished up nicely. What is the name of this pattern? The points will soften when washed. As long as the fabric is a good quality they will hold their shape. :thumbup:
