    Help I started to stipple my Downy Quilt for Kids. The front looks great but the back has some loose stiches. The directions said you have to make eveything secure and I am so worried that this may be an issue. Does anyone know how to fix this. I am way to far along to pull out stiches so that is not an option. Thanks.

    Don't know how to fix it except to take it all out and check your tension then start over. Think about little fingers getting caught in a loop!

    your going to have to take out the loose stitches. you may be able to join one end of the stitch line to the other(of the missing stitches oyu took out) i know it is not a happy thought, but they won't give it to a child with loose stitches..little fingers could get in there..so sorry.

    I finished my quilt from the kit; now I'm almost finished with a second one I'm making from some fabric I bought that was "so cute" I'll get pic later.

    I received my kit a couple of weeks ago, made it the next day. Enjoyed the pattern so much that I went out and bought some fabric to make a second one. Will be quilting them both this week. Hope to get them out within the next week or so.
