Does anybody out there quilt? I'm not making a quilt, per se, but I am sewing some plaid flannel onto the back of a lightweight wool to make a blanket. I thought I might do some "quilting" on it - that is, sew designs through the whole thing to help it stick to itself. I don't know if this is clever or a terrible, terrible idea. I also don't know how to choose or make a design.

Edited: Simple embroidery. That's the solution. I'm doing swirls.

Thank you!

Yep. I first learned to purl while living in the lesbo house and watching Save The Last Dance, while the retarded (and I mean that descriptively, and only somewhat pejoratively -- he really was brain damaged) kitten ran around and shat himself. Oh, the memories.

Okay, well, no one (human or animal) shat himself while I was learning to knit, so maybe I'm the winner on that one. :)
