I buy good fabrics to avoid problems but I know problems occasionally happen with every manufacturer.
I should stick to baking - that I don't screw up!

Keep baking but don't give up on quilting!!
PS I prefer to make the blocks too big & cut down instead of blocking. Hope this helps.

I honestly don't mind any of it. I get a little nervous when I am cutting, because I don't always get it right, but, other than that, it is enjoyable for me. I'm no expert, though, and sometimes I have issues, but, after things are washed and dried, most of the time, they disappear.
