Thank you all, I will tie it that seems the quickest way.

You can easily do "big stitch" quilting with Perle cotton crochet thread
(any color to match your fabric), and just use needle large enough for thread to go through the eye. In stitching you can do whatever is comfortable ... a sort of running/basting like stitch about 1/8-1/4" apart. This looks great on homespun quilts. And as you improve on your stitches, you are soon able to hand-quilt with small, consistent stitches for your future projects. Just Google "big stitch quilting" for excellent instructions! |
