Amie that is beautiful. I like the mixture of texture even if it is a pain.

Re: THAT chenille shabby chic quilt
Hello! I quilted the center but not the chenille borders. I tied the chenille blocks with a beautiful pearl cotton and a curved needle. Binding gave me fit, even with a walking foot, long stitch length. But, the result is jusr fablulous, I love the shabby chicness about it.
I float my top/batt. I quilt on a frame, so I just float, it's much faster for me. Amie
