I did do some machine quilting with a high loft polyester early on but I unpicked it because it didn`t look right. I redid it with a wool batt. It was quite a small quilt so it wasn`t a big job.<br />I havn`t noticed any bearding with this one but occasionally I have seen it with a quilt that had patches made with a material with a coarser weave.<br />I marked it by making a template out of thin plastic. I then traced the essential bits of the design with a fine pencil. I did want to do an 'all over' design but I got cold feet about the massive amount of work that marking it would involve!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05375842258516506191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8483437868282455907.post-91859003178121976102011-03-15T16:22:57.953+00:002011-03-15T16:22:57.953+00:00I have two questions...how did you like quilting o...I have two questions...how did you like quilting on the wool batting (any bearding?) and how did you mark your quilt?Tarynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03455236914872943577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8483437868282455907.post-34338740757200907682011-03-15T16:22:01.511+00:002011-03-15T16:22:01.511+00:00Your hand quilting is excellent.

I love to collect American quilt tops; most are too good for me to try and make them into finished quilts but I will enjoy seeing this one finished.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05375842258516506191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8483437868282455907.post-20099301347508516052011-03-13T19:25:00.527+00:002011-03-13T19:25:00.527+00:00Oh, I love your quilting design, and am always hap...Oh, I love your quilting design, and am always happy to see a "rescue".
