I have returned to this quilt and yesterday made the sandwich.
After talk and recommendations on here i opted for a 80/20 batting. Lovely and soft and much easer to move around when I began simple quilting on it today. Can't say sewing machine is brilliant though but then I have thought that before

Some of the quiltong - straight lines - looked like a dogs hind leg!. Brought out the daylight lamp that Mrbeej bought me last year and could see really well to unpick. Will redo tomorrow. Don't know why I haven't thought of the lap before! :facepalm:

Finally cut out the binding - yet to be sewn together - into one long strip.
