PRECLASS REQUIREMENTS: In order to complete this bag in one session please do the following:
-Have all fabrics and bosal precut
- Pre quilt the main section as follows: Fuse the Bosal to the wrong side of the two outside main pieces and another bosal piece to the two lining pieces. Then place one outside and one inside together with the bosal on top of each other and the main fabric and the lining on the outside. You will have a “bosal” sandwich. Iron and make sure you iron with steam so that both fabrics adhere to the Bosal. Then quilt as desired. I quilt with approximately ¾” inch between the horizontal lines. |
