Our second child. I was convinced he would never get as many quilts as his first-born sister, and I was right! But then I felt the quilt guilt about kid 1 not having a mommy-made quilt. I even planned on making a plus quilt. So I have now pinned the "modern plus quilt tutorial" you used. And I have renewed zeal, and two cups of coffee energy, to start cutting out this quilt!Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806422800093554729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261923494451820843.post-67538024935515089462011-05-06T23:28:07.133-04:002011-05-06T23:28:07.133-04:00hey jess! i am doing straight lines on lay's q...hey jess! i am doing straight lines on lay's quilt and i did get a walking foot (a cheap generic one for like $16) because me previous quilting efforts were catastrophes. it works really well, but i am butchering it still because i rushed through the basting. i think i am going to pick it all out and start over. i also picked a bad thread color. arg!keight dukeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04887072283297653771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261923494451820843.post-45116143932074791782011-05-06T22:46:50.837-04:002011-05-06T22:46:50.837-04:00Looks great Keight! If you decide to quilt it wit...Looks great Keight! If you decide to quilt it with your machine using straight lines, I highly recommend a walking foot. If you decide to have it quilted, it usually runs about $0.015 per inch (so if your quilt it is 60x90, the price would be 60*90*0.015 or $81). It can be pricey so if you are just doing straight lines, I recommend splurging on a walking foot (~$30) and struggling through! I've seen the amazing things you do and I know you can do it :) Can't wait to see the finished product!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03376779236741740174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261923494451820843.post-28477265902576444832011-05-05T22:30:22.110-04:002011-05-05T22:30:22.110-04:00Oh my heavenly heavens.
