I was concerned about quilting through the thicker fabrics too and began with minimal quilting but decided to add extra rows as it looked better and wasn’t too hard. Very pleased I did now. I usually quilt one stitch at a time - not stab stitching, just in and out once on the needle. I do this three or four times then draw the whole length of thread through. I find this avoids pulling/puckering in the back and is easier on my fingers too. Using this technique meant the thicker fabric wasn’t too tricky.<br />Karen @ Pieces of Contentmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00719349569606790410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7770419908701070201.post-40230113286175537062016-09-21T09:11:54.142+10:002016-09-21T09:11:54.142+10:00Your detail work is fantastic.
