Before You Dive In
Before we jump into the fun part of sewing, I have a couple of tips that’ll make your journey with the Road Home Snuggler Quilt even smoother.
First and foremost, make sure your workspace is organized; it helps keep the creative flow intact.
Having all your materials within reach allows you to focus on the rhythmic joy of sewing.
Secondly, take a moment to pre-wash your flannel fabric if you haven’t already.
It shrinks a bit and removes any sizing that can affect how your quilt lays when finished.
Plus, think of it as a little extra love you give to your fabric before you turn it into the cozy, magical quilt it’s meant to be!
