Good to know! I am stitching BFF on linen, but I don't cut it until it's ready to be pieced.<br /><br />Nevertheless, it looks fabulous, so it's all worth it. And linen wears like iron, so that will be nice too!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224346283881001640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-79749439619665655752013-11-21T11:41:29.535-08:002013-11-21T11:41:29.535-08:00I have never used linen in making a quilt.

Did you cut the backs out of your linen so your blocks would lay flatter or so it would be easier to quilt? I wouldn't have thought of cutting the backs out. I don't mind prepping if I'm in the right mood, it just needs the right music or an interesting podcast to listen to.

Th...I, too, agree about the scrappiness in quilts! That's one reason I collect so many/different fabrics. I love antique quilts and looking at the range of fabrics in them. All those scrappy fabrics make me happy.<br /><br />Prep work can sure be a drag, but worth it in the long run. Nothing worse than having to stop stitching and prep more stuff!<br /><br />Thanks for the info on the linen. IF I ever applique on linen, I will not cut out the back. And linen looks so pretty. I have a piece of blue linen I was saving for the background of applique, and now I'm re-thinking that.

Definitely a theme in all of my quilts. It just doesn't make sense to me otherwise, I'd get bored.
