Just...I'm impressed with your ingenuity, Lane. Just a tip from someone who's worked at this scale: starching your fabrics before you cut makes it so much easier. The person who taught me also had us mark the seam line at the intersection with a fine-point marker, but you accomplished the same thing with your basting stitch.Libby in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709701255260085505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-84882289834056226192017-01-12T16:20:45.147-06:002017-01-12T16:20:45.147-06:00This is very exciting!

Curious about the basting stitches, though -- are you planning to remove all of those stitches? If so, could you have sewn the basting stitches with water soluble thread to stabilize the bias edges, mark where seams will cross, but then have the thread just dissolve and vanish when the finished quilt makes its maiden voyage through the washing machine?Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-91157385327184156802017-01-12T10:28:54.591-06:002017-01-12T10:28:54.591-06:00That is going to one BEAUTIFUL quilt (and one that...That is going to one BEAUTIFUL quilt (and one that I don't plan of tackling any time soon!!)
