I quilt double knit quilts at two churches for charity or the homeless. At one, we cut 12 inch square blocks, back them with sheets, turn them, top stick the edges, and tie them with yarn. At the other one, we cut 7 inch blocks, back them
with large pieces of double knit, tie them with crochet thread , and bring the backing to the front and stitch it down onto the front. I always make a diagonal design, but others make different patterns. The quilts do not need batting, wash well, and as already said, they are almost indestructible. At the other places where I quilt, we use only 100 percent cotton, which we give to children from neonatal up to 18 years old. We have a running joke that someday
we will run out of double knit! When we get a little low, we always receive a big donation of someone's enormous
stash.
