"Well, we just took the quilt out of the dryer. And now the next step is to brush the quilt. You can see how fluffy it already is. But actually getting it a little fluffier by brushing it, really, really helps. We have these bristol brushes that we're using. And we just brush the seams, one way. And then you can brush them back the other way. And don't forget the horizontal seams as well. Now every now and again, you'll see these fibers that are coming out of this. You can pull these fibers out. And probably you have to have a waste basket nearby so you can deposit them there. And then start over again. It's probably going to take you a little while. But it's a nice sitting down job that you can do. Now we have been sitting here on the dining room table. You could have it on your lap. But I think a hard surface underneath it really works best."
