Well I finished putting all the layers together! I am so exhausted but excited. I am going to be able to take tomorrow and use it for getting to know my new sewing machine and not working on the quilt! I need a day off before the big weekend...I see already a few things...one, I think I am not going to use wool batting next time...it was too uneven..my last quilt was fine..but this is a bigger quilt so I had to get a bigger piece of batting and the wool just bunched up everywhere. I liked wool because it was not so stiff as the other....but I am going to try the other next time. Also, I used the light fusing this time because I knew I was going to have more layers than my last quilt. This was a mistake. I am going to use the regular weight fusing from now on. but its just not as sticky as the regular weight and the pieces are already starting to come off and I still need to bunch it all up and quilt the thing! Hopefully things will stay in place enough that it wont become a mess. I learn as I go. This is life!
