I needed a new blanket for my bed, so I purchased two pieces of backing fabric for the size bed I needed the blanket for and some batting; once you are don't 'practicing' you have a useable blanket for a bed that will last. I've found that most of the blankets I've had - unless electric - don't last; this was a perfect solution. Good luck.

When I take lessons, the instructors just set up a sandwich like cindi is showing. Another idea is offer to quilt charity quilts if you belong to a guild. You can always make the sandwiches into pet beds after quilting them.

I purchased 4 yards of white on white pattern at JAF today for 2.99/yd which I'll use for my front and back and I'll use dark thread.
So, do I just take the top and backing and the batting with me and it gets loaded (somehow) on the LA or do I assemble it at home and do any basting beforehand?
