Now I remember......

.......why I don't do ruffles......or prairie points, which I love.

You can't quilt to the edges, and while on a hand-quilted project, you can quilt pretty close to the edge and then leave the thread hanging for finishing later, what do you do on machine-quilting. 

This quilt is so little that most all the lines of quilting were going to go to the edges !  
Hmmmmmmmm........gonna have to figure on this awhile.









Atleast I got my batting pieced, my "backing"made (that's a secret to be revealed later),

and the little thing basted..........













with help, of course !

  2. So what does it matter if you just quilt as close as you can get?? I have done a quilt with Prairie Points and didn't think twice about the stippling. I guess I don't understand the problem. Love the colors!
