I trimmed the batting and cut the backing to one inch. I rolled the backing up and over the front and top stitched it down on the three sides.
The top, with the batik fabric, I had made longer so I could fold it down and create a 'chin guard'. Afterwards, I thought it needed tying because I had doubled the batting inside to make it as thick as the rest of the quilt.
I think I want to wash it now and see what happens.
My quilt has no label - that's the first time I've not put a label on one of my quilts.
I made this as a replica of the orginal, found in Roderick Kiracofe's book Unconventional and Unexpected Quilts.
