It is not that hard to do in the end, you just have to practice, and it would look great on that quilt.Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16285223648285145607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972663632294784154.post-28819273918777981252011-08-22T14:17:49.568-07:002011-08-22T14:17:49.568-07:00Love your Little Apples, can't wait for mine t...Love your Little Apples, can't wait for mine to arrive :-) And your sampler blocks are great.

I was thinking about your sandwich wraps the other day & wondered if you lined them with sewable pvc fabric i.e. making them wipeable, would that save on the washing? Just an idea. Gorgeous baby quilt btw.

I love it and it is sooooo quick to do. Still loving all your other fabric too.

Love the Little Apples quilt. Such a pretty range.

This is my current default quilting pattern-- wavy vertical lines. I find it easier than straight line stitching (but I have trouble sewing a straight line, hehe), and its "organic" feel means it's alright if it's not perfect. it creates a densly quilted quilt, great for little kids and families. Looks great after machine washing too. <br />I hope you decide on something comfortable that works for you. If you want to try this, let me know (I can send more pics too).Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124055364435672026noreply@blogger.com
