Quilt Journal: Magic Quilt



Magic Quilt
Quilt made for Blair
Got kit from Goderich Quilt store- very basic design
Date Started Kingsville 2008
Top Completed Kingsville 2008
Quilt Completed Kingsville Dec 18 2008 (only because Xmas was early)
Construction
Machine pieced, Machine tacked
Lessons Learned
Fabric a nightmare to work with- like a stretch velour
One way stretch was very hard to control
Used high loft batting and had problems trying to tuft
Finally put through machine with tailor’s tacks
BS did say that quilt is lighter than he expected and nice and warm

This quilt is beautiful!!! Does look very snuggly. If you have any extras that would look nice on a little girls wall til she gets bigger let me know and I may be able to purchase from you and send you shipping money...if I don't get to TO to see Erin and her baby this year.

Keep up the excellent work.
