You may remember this quilt, which I began in August. Well, this weekend I did the second step. Yes!Step 2: Baste front to back. That's it!
I managed to do this without sewing Maisy in, and, unlike last time, without basting everything to the rug underneath.
Now I'm ready to start quilting. I've decided to try a quilting hoop, mainly to make it easy to put everything away at short notice, then pick it up again and work out what I was up to. That's the way our household runs.

I love the print you are using - what a great quilt that's going to make. And additional points for not including the rug as an extra layer!
sounds like all systems go. looks like it will be a wonderful quilt - the print is gorgeous!

i have to admit that when I saw the shrinkage in step #1, I did laugh. That stuff always seems to happen to me.
