Hi there, Just an idea but have you thought of quilting it in quarters. Okay so you have to do a bit of hand sewing but it would be easier to handle.

Elle - I WISH I had done my big quilt in quarters instead of halves..... :roll:

Quliting by hand is no problme for me . It takes time . I work 6 days a week; my day starts at 3 am I have to be at work at 5 an it is an hour drive. And it is a 10 hr. day if not longer. IT takes me a long time to stich in the ditch, and Ido not want to do trangles. Any surgestions all are wecome I have till the end of Sep. Thanks
