Quilt Sandwiched together.

No pins! 
it really didnt take long.

Showing the quilt basted - you can see the back and the front.



I have also drawn with a Bic pencil as suggested in Scharon Schambers video on basting, and have now to baste together 
 my practise piece  before I tackle the larger one.
The pencil was actually a lot easire to use more correctly than the blue pen.
I just hope it washes out OK.
As you can see in the photo...I misjudged the edges or the piece and have added some extra fabric.
This design is 1/4 of another design I have worked out...so it will be interesting to see what this one looks like too...that will be the next whole cloth after this.
Its all a learning curve and I am enjoying working slowly.
Still waiting to get the silk thread before I start...sooo  I shall maybe do some more work on my POTC's.
Or some more Zentangles :)

Oooo I can hardly wait to see what this looks like all stitched up. I must admit, I love the whole process, even the slow prep parts :0)
