    here is another baby quilt that i used this method of quilting. or is it considered to be tacking? i know that it is the fastest method of attaching the sandwich together 8) :wink: 8) i just don't seem to have the patience to quilt traditionally. and since i can take a small quilt to work i am whipping thru these simple baby quilts using this method. anyone else do much of this turkey/crow foot tacking/quilting?

    I started doing Crows Foot when I was much much much younger. I didn't know the name turkey tracks until I got on this board. It must be a regional thing. The bottom line is that it looks so nice and puffy, and is quick.

    Here ya go, Anita. http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/1753.page

    I guess it depends on where you live. Your quilt is really cute though going by either name!

    thanks Sara... I have never heard of that in Minnesota. I use a surgeon's knot when tying. It makes for a tight knot.

    I like it to. I would like to try this because I love hand work, but I am not to good at instrutions I do better with hands on someone showing me. I am going to your instructions and see if I can do this.
