quick intro

I've been quilting for a little while, but never thought to look and see if there was a newsgroup, so I'm pleasantly surprised to find one that looks very active and fairly free from spam!I'm currently working on a Thomas the Tank Engine quilt for my son, it's an interesting one as it was has no need for binding, the pattern directs you to make a sandwich of batting, then back with right side up and front with right side down and stitch most of the way round and turn inside out, I choose to use fleece instead, so only 2 layers. I'm nervous about having excess or insufficient fleece, though I was careful pinning it before stitching, having started quilting, it looks like I may have some excess, but not too much, that the slack can't be taken up, but next time, I think I'll go back to binding and quilt from the centre out!I look forward to chatting with you.Anne(British, but living in WA)
