Don' panic...it's supposed to be marked! That's a good thing...it's ready for hand quilting. I just got the raffle quilt back from the person who marked the quilting lines with a washout marker. The top is rather a bit wrinkled after being in a bag. Do I remember that I should NOT iron on top of the blue marker lines?? Do we just stretch to top on the frame for hand quilting and ignore the little creases until we dissolve the lines? This quilt looks wonderful...I don't want to screw it up now!

If you want, you can pin to a design wall (or a tall clothesline) and let it hang out for a couple of days. Lots of the creases will vanish. After that, putting it in a frame will solve any remaining problems. Roberta in D

DO NOT IRON OVER THE BLUE LINES... unless you plan for them to be a part of your finished quilt!
Don't ask me how I know! ;-)

That's what I thought. I resisted.
