How to Finish Off A Quilt
A gal on another website ask me how to finish off a quilt and also how to make a tee-shirt quilt, I thought my response might be helpful to other people as well so I have posted it here.
There are many ways to finish off a quilt . You to need to sandwich your finished quilt. That is you choose a backing fabric, a batt for the center and then put on your finished top. You can then choose to quilt it, tie or machine quilt it . About.com has all the information you will ever need to help you from start to finish with a quilt. http://quilting.about.com/od/beginningquilters/Quilting_for_Beginners.htm
