Wilmington Fabrics "To The Moon and Back"
I just finished this quilt a couple of days ago. It is for a cousin's baby shower. I quilted it on my DM with Invisafil thread. It is a very, very fine polyester thread with a sheen to it. It does pretty much disappear if it matches the color of the quilt. However, now I am concerned that the threads will melt if she drys it in a hot dryer. I did send a "care" label with it and cautioned her not to dry it in a hot dryer but with a new baby and a ton of work to do, well, you know, it could happen. Just have to let it go and hope for the best. Probably won't use this thread on a quilt in the future. (It is beautiful! The thread, that is.) Yolanda

Your quilt is really cute and the colors so nice for a little one. Please be sure to include complete laundering and drying instructions and don't leave it to chance. I wonder about the information that is available for the thread you used. There have been so many improvements in polyester or polyester based threads. I used to not be a fan of them, but I am changing my mind about some of the applications. Check it out.
