I revisited some of the edits I mentioned and realized ‘less is more’! Which, again, is all part of the process – right?
Thanks for catching up reading my humble posts, Mariss.

Read with interest the quilting of the PF.

Thanks for stopping by, CC.
So far I really love the double batting. The bottom 80/20 glides nicely, giving the rest of the quilting a base while the upper low loft adds a slight poof and fluffiness without tripping up the machine quilting stitches.

I’ll be very interested to read what you think about the double batting once you are done, great idea to use a kit to bypass some of the thinking so you can get to your experiments with the least fuss. 🙂

It’s a keeper!

Like I mentioned to Lisa in comments, using a kit helps contain things to where I can focus a bit more on my experiments (the double batting for example). Plus, I like the backing fabric that came with the kit!

Thanks, Lisa. Using a kit as a guide has made it easier to enjoy my experiments more!
Hope your travel is calming down…maybe by Fall?

Thanks for stopping by, Sharon. The To-Do Tuesday linky-party was fun…nice to meet you,too.

I have never bought a kit, but I do see the attraction of kits. I also have never tried Quilter’s Tape, but I have used masking tape and painters tape in the past…not my favorite way to mark my quilting. I like to baste using safety pins on large projects and straight pins on the small stuff (or maybe spray baste, but I tend to get everything sticky…my table, my fingers, my tools…ha, ha!). I love the blue washout marker! And I have stitched designs through paper and then peeled off the paper. I find your choice of batting interesting, too. Not the batting itself, but that you are using two different kinds together. The only time that I have used another layer of batting is when I was doing trapunto, but the layers were the same type of batt.
