Comforter update

Well, I just whipped off another 18" worth of quilting. I think my lines are getting a bit straighter, but they still aren't pretty. The thread kept breaking tonight, which was annoying.

I measured my comforter... the final size is 8' by 5'4". (96" by 64".) According to my Quilter's Dream Cotton batt, a twin is normally 92" by 72", so that's not too far different. The wool batting I'm using is meant for a double, though, which, according to Quilter's Dream, is supposed to be 96" by 92"... I did squish it width-wise a bit, but I don't think by 28". I'll keep that in mind in case I buy another locally made batt... which I'm thinking about, in order to make a pair of wool mattress pads.

Okay... time for bed. Good night.
