Do you remember this quilt top?
Well, it just got back from the quilter---
I love it even more. It's amazing what quilting can do for your quilt! It brings it to life!
The nubby minkee on the back looks so soft and comforting.
Good job on this quilt, S! It's beautiful!

oh man that looks good! Love the minkee on the back.
Thank you for posting this because my next quilt to long arm has a nubby minkee back, and I have not done much with this before. Do you think it loses it's plush-ness (new word?) when it is densely quilted? I want to feather my quilt (because that's what I'm into right now), but I don't want to take away from the backing. My alternative is a large stipple.
None of the plushness (great word!) was lost. I was able to rub my hand on the back and still got the light when you rub one way and dark when you rub the other way without any interruption from the stitching. I think it quilted very well!
What is "nubby minky" I haven't ever heard that before? Don't you realize you have a novice here - you can't use a quilting phrase and not explain it.
