Still have to bind a quilt for my son before the big day, but I am getting there.

Only prob is quilting cottons can be so wrinkley. Hate to give a gift that requires ironing. Any solution for that except chemicals?

How cute. It always amazes me when some says they pulled it from their stash and make things that match perfectly and they had enough fabric for the project. Since I am new at this.....I think I need a stash.
