SuzSLO; does SLO stand for the town in California. I went to University there.
The quilting is usually evenly distributed. Sometimes the quilting is the design. Or maybe I'll ditch it then add decorative quilting.
I learned the hard way about poly batting. Now I use cotton 80/20, bamboo, wool. I'd love to try silk.
Most of my learning is the hard way. I'm trying to learn I don't need to reinvent the wheel.
