| the friendly lady in the shop, De Schapekop, gave me lots of advice on how to sow the front, the batting and the back all together ' always work from the middle! ' so I went home with the new tools ( a long needle, a ring, a quilting thimble, quilting thread and the batting) and started by moving a cupboard out of the way and vacuuming so I could lay out the back sheet on the floor, fixed that with tape and then on went the batting and then the top patchwork sheet and I started to sow them all together 'always working from the middle!' until all was more or less neatly joined together and finally I could start quilting; again starting in the middle and using the wooden ring to help me along, patience and determination are a must. |
