what is the quot;fluffyquot; stuff called inside a quiltim new at making a quilt and don't want to use the wrong stuffalso, when i do buy that material, do i sew it along the edges with the fabric? or does the yarn that you tack down all over at the end hold in in place?
cotton thats why we wear cotton and because it creates air pockets that reduce transfer and loss of heat
You already have some good advice here, but also some that might not be best to followDO NOT use foam or feathers(down) in your quilt as battingI suggest a quilt shop, not a hobby shop, though fabric stores often carry batting nowTacking the quilt (called tying) is quicker, but less stable over time and also not as attractiveEven just straight line quilting in a grid will give you texture and interest that are a big improvement over a tied quilt Online sources are helpful, but don't overlook your library, and ask about quilt guilds or less formal groups near youThere is worldwide interest in quilting nowYou will be surprised at how warm as cover, and how charming to the eye your quilt will be! If using your Grace frame, you will not necessarily need to layer and baste, but follow directions with careYou can make your own binding from extra fabric from your quilt, and it will look better, but that is a whole 'nother chapter! Hope this helps.
