Morning all I got an email last night from a DDIL. She is working on making a quilt for her daughter's (our granddaughter's) baby doll. Already she is saying she's planning one now for her daughter's big girl bed! I think she might be hooked!
She made a few noises about wanting to try quilting when we delivered the baby quilt that I made for her daughter 1 1/2 years ago. Unfortunately, they live on the other side of the country and we have not seen them since the visit when we delivered the quilt.
It seems that she has put piping around the edge of this baby doll quilt. She describes it as looking "rope-like" to make the edge look nice. Would not have been my choice for a first endeavor, but it sounds like it is already stitched on. She is asking for advice on how to deal with the 2 ends of the "rope-like" stuff where they meet up. Is there an easy solution? She is not very good at articulating anything, so I am reading between the lines here. I'm afraid she may have already stitched this on and cut the end. If this is the case, would glue work? Any suggestions for type of glue?
Does anyone have a link for a good beginner quilting lesson?
Thanks for any suggestions.
