I am very tired today, Ive had a difficult night but I did manage to do some more strippies and still lots lots more to do.
My partner Jim asked me a question and I didnt know the answer to that one.
" Can Quilts be also made as Duvet Quilt Covers? with just the quilt top and backing which would be like a huge pillow slip to slip the quilt into."Please let me know the answer to that one

Thanks so much for the award. It may be a few days before I do anything with it.
I have made a quilt duvet cover. There's a picture on my Nov 15,07 post. I just made sure it had pretty large pieces and serged the seams so they wouldn't ravel with repeated washings. Some people also put a layer behind the pieced front and them the back so that the raw edges are hidden. I thought that might be too heavy and take too long to dry.
Is that the same as a Quillow?
Is that the same as a Quillow?
I don't see why not. It would save quilting them.
I'm sure I read somewhere that someone had done that with most of her unquilted tops. She bought cheap duvet covers, took them apart and sewed in the unquilted tops.
