Wow I cant wait to watch this. Thank you so much. I will grasp it much better seeing it as opposed to reading about it. The visual will be really helpful. I am going to watch it now. There is hope! yay.

Thanks again,

Mona B

I find that this board has an answer for every darn thing I ever ask! I LOVE YOU ALL!

I never thought of that. Doesnt that make the quilt less strong having the batting in pieces or am I misunderstanding the process?

Leah has great videos showing how to "scrunch" your quilt, rather than "roll". And many other great ideas, also.

You can use the batting fuse tape or I use a wide zig zag stitch to join the batting sections together.

Thanks for the site. I too have been confused by some of the abbreviations.

One of the first quilts I did was a king size. I did lap quilting or quilt as you go. It is just like quilting in sections. I was hand quilting but it would be the same on the machine. A lot of people use the older machines that have a larger harp area for quilting.
