Has anyone tried Quilt Theory Quilting?
#1
I purchased a book & DVd set from Nancy's Notions on Quilt Theory by Betty Cotton. It sounds interesting. You make and quilt each block before joining it to other blocks, then assembly rows, etc... You can make a bed sized quilt without the need of a longarmer as all rows remain on your left. Has anyone tried this new procedure yet? Can you adjust this system for any quilt?
Thanks!

There has been some talk about some of the "quilt as you go" patterns making the quilts a little stiffer, due to the way that each section is joined. I would suggest trying a smaller lap quilt and see if you are happy with it :wink: :D

I tried it a couple of years ago, bought both books, because someone told me it was fun and EASY. Well, it wasn't all that much fun and it sure wasn't that easy. However, the finished tablerunner is very pretty and extremely sturdy, so...I guess, anyone who tries this method will form their own opinion...Good Luck!

I'll take your advice and try a smaller version.
