two different qayg methods-which is better?
#11
I guess I did the ditters's method. I recently made a Linus quilt and did QAYG and I was amazed at how easy it was and when I put the last row together, I was finished except for the binding!!! The quilting was easy because I just used whatever pattern was in the block to make the quilt pattern; like, moon (circles), stars (stars), wavy lines (wavy lines), planets with rings (circle with rings). Hope that makes sense. I will try to post a picture on the pictures thread.
I really like QAYG method. I had a whole set of Georgia Bonesteel books but after reading them and not have room for all the books I have, I took them to the Guild for the freebie table.

a method which basically kept the backing whole but allowed you to quilt a row of the quilt to the backing (with batting of course) then you sewed the next row to the previous row to the top of the quilt -add strip of batting then quilt it - and so on until you had it completed.

This looks easy and NO strips to sew in between each block, line up front and sew right sided together, no stip, turn over and trim batting and fold larger size backing one straight overlapping where batting meets, then fold other side over and fold edge under and sew by machine.

I've quilted in 4 sections and hand stitched the backing to the top. No sashes were used either front or back. I used the front was pieced and the back was whole. If you are interested in this method I'll find the site I learned from and give it to you. I was very happy with the results.

If you google "How to Quilt in Sections without Sashing" it will bring up a site Venus de Hilo. There is a wonderful step by step tutorial by Stephanie Serrano explaining her way of quilting in sections. This is the one I used and found it to work wonderfully.
