This answers my question about whether seams make wobbly spots.

Last year my quilt group did a friendship quilt. We each started with a square and passed it to another each month. I ended up with a beautiful quilt, much larger than expected. last month I cut the corners off and made it fit my table for a tablecloth. I used white muslin to back it and also have batting in it. I love it! It doesn't need a pad under it when you use it and it drapes nicely.

I made what I call a my utility quilt to be used for picnics, in the car in winter, blankets, where ever is a need. I measured my table and was sure that I made it large enough to hang over it 10 inches all around. Yes, it was scrappy, and the pattern I used was a snowball. Actually I call it "My snow balls chance in....." I got so tired of making snowballs. Anyway, it was layered with Hobbs 80/20 and the LAer did a pantos of butterflies. Perfect! I used it for a table cloth most of the holidays and people enjoyed it, washed up great, then into the car to go on a 10 day road trip. It was perfect for napping under in the car, and warm enough for those cold motel rooms. Now it's all washed up again and ready for company on St. Patrick's Day. You can't go wrong!
