    Default Train cars prove a challenge
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]618562[/ATTACH]Ready for the backing. Apart from the difficulty placing cars and squaring up the quilt and having to cut off some ends I didn't want to cut, this material was a nightmare. Will only use batiks another time. too many strings on this one. Oh well. We sew and learn, I guess.

    Great quilt. Looks like you did a wonderful job inspite of the string fabic. I've had that type fabric once before and it is a pain to work with.
