    make sure you feed the dogs and let them out regularly.
    clean up after yourselves.
    leave me a case of diet coke.

    Okay, I'm trying to understand this. Are you saying that the batting is not
    one piece. that you cut the batting the size of the block rows ? do you start at the top and work your way down?

    that's one way to do it. there are so many methods for quilting as you go i've lost count. and new ones are being discovered as we speak. here's a link to instructions for a few of those methods. if you search this board on "quilting in sections" and "quilt as you go" you'll find comments and links to other methods and book recommendations.

    Thanks for the site referral..I think I understand it some. wouldn't videos be so much more helpful? I guess when you've quilted a long time you can understand written directions better than those of us who just started to quilt and need those visuals!

    I'm a visual learner too! And I love being able to rewind a tape to see a step over again if I need to.

    Georgia Bonesteel had some instructions on VHS for her lap quilting projects. They show up on Ebay now and then and may still be available online. The one I have is from 1996, so they may be available in dvd format now if offerred at all.

    I caught a Donna Dewberry show on PBS and she has a great quick method for small projects for quilt as you go. Those videos are available through PBS, or her one stroke painting site.

    HGTV has a video on Simple Quilts from Alex Anderson that shows step by step the methods for Quilt as you go. . If you can't find it... let me know I'll look up the site.

    sorry ladies, when I tried the site it didn't work.... let me try again.
    http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/pac_ctnt_988/text/0,,HGTV_22056_58466,00.html?c=6619 I think there were too many letters in the other site :( :shock: . I am not the best with computers. Anyway, I hope you like the site... I think they do a nice job of demonstrating QAYG. Quilter 1234
