I want to swallow my sewing fears and make 2 quilts for dcs. I want to make them out of squares of their favourite old baby clothes that I held onto.
Is there anything I need to know before I start seeing as all the fabrics will be different types. A mix of stretchy cottons and possibly some denim.
Should I sew them all together first, sew a large piece of material on the back and then put some wadding in the middle?
I'm just typing as I'm thinking here. I'm imagining the quilt Susan Saradon made for her dd in Stepmom but maybe not on such a big scale. I'm such a wet I'm usually balling too much at that bit of the film to look at it closely.
