I love your quilt. What a cute idea. I have always quilting small items like this on my regular machine.

That is so cute. Sure she is going to love it.

what a great gift, she'll cherish it for ever

Thanks! I took your advice and it is on the machine ready to go. I cut the backing long enough for the top and bottom rail. Any idea on what I can do in the borders?

Kristine is great! You can "float" your top on a larger piece of backing. This works for placemats and such. You pin the backing to the take-up rail but not the batting or the quilt top. Then you do have to pin to your other rails. Hopefully your leader for the top is long enough. Then just pin the top to the backing and batting and baste or sew right near the top edge of your quilt top to hold it.
Hope this works. |
I like your idea of diagonal lines. They appear more geometric - different from the rounded edges of meandering or stipple.

THANKS so much. I think I will do the diagonal lines. I will send a picture as soon as it is done.
