    That is one perspective. Notice McKenna was nervous. Never looked at the camera plus her neckline was red. The host was doing her best to help her feel less nervous. AND…it all worked out. When we’re nervous our mind can go blank. The bottom line…this was helpful and gorgeous design. TYVM for giving us more beautiful ideas to expand our quilting. Awesome! Awesome!

    Same question, thanks. The fusibles I have tried were all very frustrating to work with. I wish there was one I could trust to last through a washing. I recently bought some basting spray, and regretted it because it leaves a sticky film on everything nearby too. I would love to make a quilt to use on my own bed, but the idea of the raw edges makes me nervous. These are beautiful, but I would need more info before trying it.
