BTW - Whose Little Richard? :mrgreen:

Had to give a good laugh on this one! :lol: :lol: :lol: You must be very young. I love it. BTW, I don't think he's doing too well right now. Some health problems.

PS (edit):
OOps ! You got me. :oops: That's what I get for reacting and responding before I read the complete thread. teeheehee. You're good.

It is so cute I love the colors I am a pink girl all different shades of and rose and light mauve colors This happened to one of my moms quilts so she ran it through her mangle (Iwould have to iron it)she didn't undo her quilting but then she tied it. Something like that may work no matter what it is really pretty

I like it!! You could try wetting it thoroughly, & spinning it as dry as possible, then lay it out pulling it into shape as much as possible, or even pressing while wet from the center out. That may restretch the batting somewhat. It's too pretty to give up on yet.

not to worry. i haven't given up on it. i'm going to cut it apart, add quilting, and then reassemble it by attaching the blocks to an additional back and resashing it. it will probably be smaller when i'm done but that's ok.
