You don't need stabilizer when you put all three layers in the hoop. Strong hands are a must. I used 5x7 hoop, top and bottom layer cotton and warm and natural batting.

an attempt at rag quilting...... [ATTACH=CONFIG]236694[/ATTACH] memory quilt for retiring school secretary [ATTACH=CONFIG]236696[/ATTACH] |
Very nice.

but what was being asked was about doing the quilting of the background with line type embroidery designs
|
That's what the whole cloth, white on white quilt is about. The designs are embroidered on and makes the quilt. It is a tradition where a young woman soon to marry had to make one for her wedding night. Go for it!
