What a pain!

And I pay for it the next day. I'm using a bamboo batting on my current project and had the same lint issues. I finally folded the backing over the front and pinned it down. That contained the lint, but I'm still constantly brushing off lint that got there before I had that idea. Quilt well.

Isn't it hard quilting without a quilting foot (walking foot)? I've never tried that. The foot for free motion on my machine is clear so you can see where you're going but it doesn't grip the fabric. I want to know how you put the pieces together too. I've done quilt as you go but that involved using strips of fabric.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778110892578808447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2377988951040901267.post-46029211441169456462009-10-08T12:50:47.449-04:002009-10-08T12:50:47.449-04:00I have not tried that batting yet.

I may have to try that because shoving a big quilt through that small opening is very annoying, not to say tiring.marlene@ByTheSeamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549455285454897455noreply@blogger.com
