The very first quilt I ever attempted came from a kit that had minky in it. What a disaster, especially for a new quilter. I did manage to finish the top but have never quilted it. It was for my new DGD but I felt the work was too sorry to give to her! Because of the stretchiness of the minky, the blocks would not line up.
I have learned so much since then but I'm still not sure I will ever attempt minky again! :lol: |
I hate working with it but love touching it-very messy but great results
|
You are so ambitious to tackle that much cutting of Minkee. I recently did a strip quilt from minkee and HATED the process....Luv the results, just hate the messy process. Looking good so far, good luck!
|
Beautiful colors. That Minkee is one slippery, stretchy, messy stuff, but it feels so good.
|
I have never used minkee but have a greatgrand on the way. But if this stuff has so much lint..............would it continue to put lint on the baby?

Your quilt is going to be gorgeous!
|
WOW! I can't wait to see more of this quilt :D:D:D
|
What a pretty quilt, DA Mayer! I think it is so nice for a baby to have a quilt with a variety textures- that is what his/her first sensations are going to be.
|
What a snuggy quilt for the new one! I've only used minkee as a backing on some I Spy's. Brave soul for piecing with it! G
