Miss Ladybug

Miss Ladybug is all finished and ready to be delivered.

There were a couple of questions on how I quilt on my domestic sewing machine and not have puckers on the back. I've been using the Quilt basting spray adhesive AND safety pins. I have found that using only one or the other does not seem to do the trick for me. And even so, this time I still had one pucker along the border. All in all, it was a fun quilt to make and I hope the baby will enjoy using it.

Have a great weekend, and happy quilting!

The quilt is lovely, and I am sure will become a treasured heirloom! I nearly always get at least one pucker on the back, however hard I try not to! So annoying! Have a good weekend.

It's adorable! One to be loved for a long time. :-)

I love the spray adhesive--it's all I every use, no matter what size quilt I'm doing. And, you're right, no puckering on my backs either!
Wish my "ladybug" quilt was on it's way to being finished; maybe after I get through work projects and another book. XOXO

Love your quilt. I also quilt on my domestic machine, even king sized quilts...I love the white and natural batting, it is the best for nothing having puckers in the back....
