[Nfb-krafters-korner] Sewing/quilting

[David Andrews via Nfb-krafters-korner]

I could be wrong here -- but I used to date a big time quilter, and 
as I recall, quilting is what most people use to describe the whole 
process of making a quilt.  But, the front or top is composed   of 
pieces sewn together, I think this is called patching.  The top is 
then put together with a back and filling, and combining the three is 
called quilting, I think.

I am sure you all will correct me if I am wrong, and I couldn't do it 
to save my life.
