    I used plaids in a quilt and they look wonderful I made a king size quilt with them. Now let me see if I can send a picture.

    Marian--that's quite a quilt--and a real beauty. I wonder how long it would take me to do that???

    No I do not use plaids. Bought a couple to make a barn quilt.
    But just can't get attached to them.

    I work with lots of plaids and all I do is pull out a thread to square it. The threads are easy to pull out.

    i would not be able to live with the plaids in my quilt if they were not straight in the square, so I avoid them.
