Confession time. I finished my first ever quilt top using fabric scraps and discount fat quarters over a year ago, and it's never been quilted or completed, so I am putting my foot down and getting it done. The back, wadding and quilt top have been sitting in the cupboard and now they're out for good. No turning back. I mean it.
I have no good hard surfaces in my house so I'm using this method to hand baste at my dining table, with a huge cutting mat underneath. It's working brilliantly so far and very therapeutic. Just like hand stitiching and embroidery is. Does anyone else use it? Hate it? I need advice here, because I'm no quilter, and I'm teaching myself.
