That is so exciting! <br />Your daughter had a cool idea and she and her friends at work did an amazing job on this quilt. <br /><br />Yeah Satin, binding could be rough. I tried once and didn't succeed. I have had luck with minky bindings though. I used a walking foot and 3" wide binding. And my 7 year old absolutely love it :).

Apologies if it does come through twice...<br /><br />Lara, this is a heart-swelling and profoundly moving quilt, both to look at as well as to read about. I love all the input, the care and love shines through. Have never done satin binding, nor used fleece for batting, nor Minky for a backing...so I got nuthin'. Made my husband a reversible hunting jacket of fleece for both sides, and found that to be a nightmare, even with a walking foot, so have avoided fleece and similar fabrics ever since! What did Kaitie give the workers to use for drawing on the fabric? Whatever it is, it sure is vibrant!Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109527732253977468.post-54062595069806728972014-10-07T09:05:36.206-04:002014-10-07T09:05:36.206-04:00Satin binding?

Your daughter made an excellent choice and had a very good idea for the squares. Those drawings and words will themselves provide comfort. And it's beautiful too!<br />You seem to be working very hard on that book. I'm so looking forward to see it. :-)France Nadeau ❅ inspiration imagination creationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17984624117899878826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109527732253977468.post-6049112020118230662014-10-06T13:25:18.911-04:002014-10-06T13:25:18.911-04:00Good luck Lara!

I have used minky, never satin - I'm guessing the combination would be difficult to deal with! Maybe glue basting would help? Katie did an awesome job with it even though it presented a challenge :)<br /><br />Good luck as you work through this book! I've been thinking about you too! Such exciting times!!
