Ok well when I started out I knew nothing about the way things should be done. So I did two quilt panels with the cheap batting and hand quilted. Hand quilting is still holding great. But I didn't quilt enough and I just washed them. Needless to say some of the larger areas that got no quilting are starting to bunch up. I might even be able to pull a bit and even it out. So should I try to machine echo the best I can without causes wrinkles in the panel? These quilts get washed once or twice a year and hung back up on the wall. There is no hanging sleeve as I use a rod with clips. There is no way I have time to hand quilt these areas. Not sure what else I can do.
Also I have another with the same problem but more. When I first hung it I used thumb tacks and stretched it tight and pinned to the wall. Of course now that I wanted to hang it on the bar the edges are all wavy, really bad. I would almost consider redoing this one but I doubt I could find the panel again. So I really don't want to give it up. It also has a sentimental place in my heart for my ex, whom I did the same one for him.
I like the drapery bars with clips because then depending on the season I can switch them around. Tried making a hanging sleeve once. No problem making the sleeve but getting the quilt to hang the way I like was a different story. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanx Joanna Alberta
