lkl Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I have a customer quilt made from 70's poly cotton prints and solids. I am using a poly trilobal 50 wt. thread (Rheingold) similar to Glide on the top with Bottom line 60 wt. in the bobbin. Backing is a solid poly cotton and the batting is white (bleached) needle punched 50/50 poly cotton (don't know the brand). She has requested an E2E panto (Ebb and Flow). The quilt is nicely pieced, lays flat and square. Is there any special handling or advice that you can offer? Thanks, Leslie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisae Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I would say if it's well pieced, then you shouldn't have any issues! Can't wait to see the finished product! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delld Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I quilted one my daughter found in a second hand store. I had not problems. It did have some thick seams but Frannie Ann did just find!!!! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkl Posted October 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 Thank you for the advice. I didn't have any problems. I was a little concerned that the batting wouldn't have enough loft, it was fine. My customer is (and was, even then) a precision piecer. She was happy with end result and glad to have it finally quilted. Leslie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
