Think of making curvy puzzle-piece shapes, or a bunny's nose and ears in profile.<br /><br />The loops on the back are your top tension. I always have to turn my tension up quite a bit for quilting.<br /><br />You'll get there. Just keep practicing!<br /><br />Also, great rag quilt! Julia is adorable, as always!

I bet a craft store has it. Last weekend I tried the pin method and kept sticking myself. When we were at the store I asked about other methods this was her solution. I cut up a trashbag, do it outside, spray but fabric on batting works like glue, today nothing shifted. Hope this helps let me know.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08841562485538558791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2035065886211353468.post-7553930341568067572012-04-20T07:36:52.301-06:002012-04-20T07:36:52.301-06:00I think Julia looks just adorable!
