It makes all the difference in the world in that it makes it much easier to free-motion and on how the quilt looks. (How much better do most of us look when we are wearing the right bra or even spanx sometimes?) And I do want to add that I personally never worry about how the back of the quilt looks as opposed to the front. That is why it is the bsck of my quilt. (And I gotta say my stuff is lookin good.)<br />The pixie quilt looks great. I can't wait to see it finished. And you know I luv your chopsticks quilt. Happy quilting, my friend!shellysquiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09126491767987506308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-78595870394783095852009-09-29T20:38:43.308-04:002009-09-29T20:38:43.308-04:00Yes, I have to say that I made a "chopsticks&...Yes, I have to say that I made a "chopsticks" quilt about 12 years ago.

One tip I've picked up along the way is to use wash away thread with your in the ditch stitching if you don't want it to remain in the final project (of course, asumming you will be able to wash the quilt!) The pixie dust gather is looking fabulous - nice layout & way to go everyone who participated!What Comes Next?https://www.blogger.com/profile/17290766425199467892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-26663686424618916622009-09-29T11:59:01.296-04:002009-09-29T11:59:01.296-04:00Yes, I've seen several examples of the "c...Yes, I've seen several examples of the "chopsticks" quilt - yours reminded me that I want to do one with some scraps I got at a textiles sale. <br /><br />Don't feel bad - when I first started quilting, I thought I invented pinwheels. <br /><br />I'm serious! :D<br /><br />Good luck with your "gather". :)Kit Langhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264311632752776844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-80558797145165264482009-09-29T11:55:59.162-04:002009-09-29T11:55:59.162-04:00I'm so excited to be participating in another ...I'm so excited to be participating in another of your challenge/charity quilts. I really like YOUR chopstick quilt. I would say to my art students that there is really nothing new under the sun, only different interpretations that make it yours. Shelly's advise is sound and I will remember. Love our pixie quilt.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08535613151538197041noreply@blogger.com
