    Re: Quilting Bee: specific fabric

    Hi Nice to meet you too Anne Marie, I am still a bit unsure of what I am to do. Any specific material, theme, can it be machine stitched. I have never quilted before so I need a little instruction before I proceed.I can sew just never quilted.

    Thanks for any info!

    Just a baby bee here...

    Deni and Mary Anne-

    Sorry took me so long, I FINALLY got it together to mail the squares to you both.  I hope they get there in time!  Things have just been up in the air lately, and I just couldn't get my brain cells firing all at once it seemed like.

    Thanks

    Re: Quilting Bee

     I almost have all my squares ready to sew together! I'm so excited! I should have it finished by this Thursday evening. Do I need to add batting and a back piece? Forgive me if my quilting terms are wrong.. it's been a while. :) I plan on adding a second layer of fabric to the back piece of the square so that my embroidery threads are covered.

    Re: Quilting Bee

     Please contact me through email or pm.   I would like to talk with you about your project.  How many squares are you sewing together?   Are you making a whole quilt?  If you are, then yes, please add batting and a backing.  If you use fleece then you won't need batting. 

         Thanks, 

          Deni

    Re: Quilting Bee

     I am trying to put together an 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 square with at least 1/4 inch seam allowance around it for the Memorial quilt. I feel positive with the way it is turning out!  Since I hand embroidered my own pattern onto the fabric, I thought I should cover the back up. I cannot contact you through email. My computer hard drive was hit with a power surge and I lost everything last weekend, including all my email and addresses. Please send me another email so I can save your address again. Thanks!

    Re: Quilting Bee

     I love the quilt! It was so exciting to show my friends and family the square I made in the finished quilt. I mentioned this forum and all the "Bees"! Lol! I can't wait to help out with another quilt! What's next?
