Slow cooking

Any handwork goes under the slow cooking category at my house these days. However, the background for the christening quilt is quilted. I love how simple straight lines can transform this


to this.


The cotton batting is bearding quite a lot, but nothing a good sweep with the lint roller thingie cannot fix.

I remembered why I never used up this batting a little too late…

    It looks fabulous! You are right...quilting makes quilt the difference!

    Just curious if all that much quilting makes the quilt stiff or not?

    Bearding is not a happy thing with a a dark quilt. Lots and lots of lint rolling is in your future.

    Your quilt is great! I wouldn't worry about the bearding. It can be fixed... like the spelling and grammar in a great story.
    Hugs!

    I just love Channel quilting on garments, and it looks wonderful on your Christening quilt, too....bearded or no.
