    Default Minky quilt

    I am working on 2 baby quilts for twin boys and I was wondering if you can tell me if it is possible to mid arm quilt minky on a frame. Any advice would be welcome. Also these quilts are made up of 5in squares that I have machine embroidered baby animals on. Thank you

    Love Minky. Just make sure that you don't stretch it on the frame. Not really any tension. And I've used it with or without batting. Works both ways. With batting, it makes an extremely warm quilt.
