Hi Vicki Haven't tried it on George, but I would think its do-able. Are you doing free standing on an organza? Or thinking a heavier fabric?

Congrats with your new George, your going to love him!

BRRRR!!! Beautiful!! Great quilting!!

Thanks for all the great input- take home is all are great- but if going with the heirloom go by the roll- lays nicer?? I guess my next question is do a lot of you use 2 layers when quilting with wool a lot?? I have a few people say poly and wool, or 80/20 Hobbs and layer of wool? Thanks for you guys wealth of info!

Hi All, I have a question as to what brand of wool batting do you love best and where do you usually order it if buying by the roll?? Thanks! Deb

Your quilt turned out lovely!! On the subject of Filtec magnetic bobbins- I check every bobbin on the Towa gauge as quite often they are over wound and come off the bobbin at a very uneven tension. Unfortunately I do waste some thread- but once the tension evens out( not bouncing all over the place) then I adjust the bobbin tension according to were my machine likes to live ( wasting a bit of thread is better then ripping) I think Linda mentioned in an earlier post that sometimes the inside of the bobbin can have a little burr in it that you can remove with an exacto knife. All good advise about adjusting your tension, but sometimes the problem is in the bobbin

Great job Teresa, You complemented them on their stunning quilt ( very tactful ) while not taking the unrealistic responsibility of quilting it. Well said!!

Wow Jane, You survived what so many of us fear!!! Congrats!! I am hoping I never have to do that but you give me courage that I can! Happy quilting!

Keeping you in my prayers - grateful you found it early!

Congrats on your new family member!! Wishing you all the best! Happy Quilting!
