It seems pretty stable to me, so I wouldn't think any further stitching would be needed. Hope that helps!!Sew Can Dohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411538881134901843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2578269999856867237.post-56722453722649917252010-08-13T13:11:09.415-04:002010-08-13T13:11:09.415-04:00I'm stopping by from NFF!

Great work.
Question ... ...You did a fabulous job! Great work.<br /><br />Question ... did you stitch in the ditch and then do your diamond pattern or did you just do the diamond pattern? I ask because I am doing a queen size quilt for my son and want the diamond effect but am confused about the stabalizing stitch in the ditch requirement.<br /><br />Thanks!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12059167889199212943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2578269999856867237.post-14416429338320018332010-08-12T02:42:25.769-04:002010-08-12T02:42:25.769-04:00Adorable!!!
