Questions

Jen asked what is domette -- it's cotton curtain interlining, with a nap. Even after washing and dyeing, when you cut it with a rotary cutter, it leaves tracks on your cutting board -- I've been using it instead of batting/wadding, doing the quilting on the domette and top layers, then sewing the blocks together and backing the whole thing.

Jen also asked whether I treated the papers used in the Moon blocks. Short answer is no - they are under a layer of fabric, and I'm hoping that's protection enough!

Thanks, Margaret! I don't know how difficult it is to remove the domette from your cutting board, but it has made a lovely geometric pattern.

Love the way the moons look in t "Before and After" pics.
