Just want to thank you "borntohandquilt" for sharing your beautiful talent with all of us! So appreciate your instructions which you have also shared in answer to our questions! I only have one more question, How far apart are your rows of basting stitching? Thanks again & your work is amazing!

Thank you,

I must admit the basting is the part of quiltingmaking I don't like. Therefore I don't baste very close - the rows are have a distance of ca. 20 cm (8 inches). Most quilts I only baste in one direction. So please don't take that as a rule!
:oops:
But there is one thing I really do: I start in the middle of the quilt and smooth the fabric to the open edges very, very often.
