I have shirts waiting also but got too finish this one quilt top I have been on forever. Isn't tying a quilt hard? Looks like the yarn would be too big too go through the quilt. I know it would be better for me than sewing the quilt together I THINK! So much too learn but I am looking at books and listening too all of you so I will learn a few things along the way!

Thanks Poodles. The tieing is not hard. I used Redheart sport weight yarn 4oz.
A large yarn needle with a point. Sometime it sticks but you can always use a
pair of pliers to pull the thread thru. It is also best not to get the stitches to far apart. That way when you tie it in a square knot. It doesn't bunch.
Any questions let me know.

Thanks Ladies for all your compliments. Sad to admit I let it sit so long before I finished it. The shirts were some of my own, a friend, and donations that my spouse refused to even look at. They were just to good to pass up.
The quilt is only a lap top size. But very soft and comfy.
Glad I was able to find it and share it with you all.
