I quilted the first section of my double sided T-shirt quilt today and I am Soooooooo happy with how it went. I used my quilting foot and did just a simple diagonal stitch spaced a little more than 2 inches apart.
Here is the main side:
....and here is the back side...
I used a variegated blue/white/gray thread on the main side and a variegated gray/white on the back. I will probably quilt each section in the opposite direction of the section it attaches to.
and here is the Wow!...This is amazing! part of the post.....
I have had this water soluble marking pen for two or three years and I don't think I've ever used it .....til now.......
I started marking my quilting lines with a blue marking pencil when my eyes fell upon this marking pen........I tested it out on a white T-shirt scrap and it came right out when I sprayed it with water! I didn't even have to rub!........
Here are the quilt lines I marked before spraying with water:

..and here they are after spraying with water!
I'm sure I'm probably the only one who didn't realize how wonderful these water soluble pens are but I will certainly take advantage of mine from now on!
