Baby Girl Quilt Episode Three...


Alright, we've finished piecing the quilt top...



and liking the result:



Time to make a sandwich. No, not peanut butter and jelly, a quilt sandwich. The top layer, batting and a backing. Lay them all out on the ground, smoothing to perfection, and safety pin all the layers together...



Time to actually start the quilting. Basically, that means tacking all layers of the sandwich together.

I machine quilt because I am not a patient person by nature, and hand quilting just does NOT appeal to me. Yeah yeah yeah, I know that means I don't quilt for real, but that's OK. I quilt because I enjoy it.
