A Square Deal Indeed!!!

Joyce made this quilt called "A Square Deal" for a very lucky 8 year old boy.  She brought me a batting that I have never used before.  Quilters Dream Poly.  The package says "You won't beleive it's polyester!"  I could not agree more.  Another batting to try is Hobbs PolyDown.  Trust me, you'll be suprised.  It's time to let go of all the myths--you can only use this; you have to use that.  NOT!  
Joyce requested that the quilting not be straight lines of any kind.  We decided to stay with something with symmetry, just like the quilt.  This baptist fan pattern gets the job done.  It reminds me of rainbows, and that's always a good thing!
