if i remember correctly, i used warm & natural batting.
i don't blame the batting for the way it turned out. if i had quilted it properly in the first place, then the difference between what did and didn't shrink would have added just the right amount of wrinklage. i got lazy.
one day the mood will hit me to fix it. for now, i can at least take it out of the UFO column.
or i could just use it the way it is and "get over myself". it isn't like it was ever destined for a museum. :lol: :lol: :lol:

this is from our 2007 Blocks of the Month. i'm pleased with each of the blocks ... was more or less content with the top ...
i didn't add nearly enough quilting, though. the batting shrank like crazy. the fabrics didn't shrink at all. sooooooo ... it's a puckered, puffy mess in person. the only way to flatten it the way i like them is to cut it apart, requilt, and then put it back together. not my idea of a good time. :lol:
i guess that makes it a Finished UFO. :lol: :lol: :lol:
