As a quilter, needles are your best friend. But just like friends, they have to be changed now and then. The stitch quality, fabric damage and worst of all, injury are all consequences of using dull needles. So, do the right thing and honor the friendship by changing needles frequently.
As a lover of all things cozy and warm, I understand the emotional attachment to a handmade quilt. It’s more than just a blanket; it’s a tangible representation of love and artistry. So, how often should you wash it? The answer is simple yet complex. It’s ultimately up to you, the owner, to determine how often you want to wash it. But remember, each cleaning takes a small piece of its soul. Treat it with care and respect, as you would any heirloom.
