With the smaller quilts, I have just ditched between the border and on top of the zinger. That seems to have kept them from becoming erect. I do know that one cannot quilt too closely to the zinger, otherwise they *boing.*<BR/><BR/>The quilt (and especially the machine quilting...the quilting makes the quilt, you know!) is so striking. Hope your client shows it off at some shows!<BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear about the troubles with your son. Finn had some great advice. And remember, "This too shall pass."

But, this quilt needed a spark of color and with the jeans I didn't want a flimsy fabric border between the jeans fabric so it was worth the hassle to me.<BR/><BR/>As far as the job goes - I agree with you there too - it's much easier to keep track of them when they're working and busy is good at that age.Mary Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07801947879882584734noreply@blogger.com
