And it is a gorgeous one too. I agree with Wandering Cat. Don't sweat the small stuff. Go slow, take your time. It's not a race. Only you will notice the little oops. They will all disappear after a couple of washes. So, how many piglets to bottle feed? Maybe some pictures too? ;^)Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772079099766225814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104148299938856670.post-32628376620240313462017-03-26T09:20:24.475-04:002017-03-26T09:20:24.475-04:00These things are fun and fun is good!These things are fun and fun is good!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09365095115416468818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104148299938856670.post-67557070259166336302017-03-26T07:11:45.414-04:002017-03-26T07:11:45.414-04:00Glad you could finally get back to sewing.

A quilt is a big project, so you don't notice the little flubs - and for the most part, the quilting dissapears and you'll have to search for the imperfections... so just go for it!Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104148299938856670.post-55414038636326954602017-03-25T20:36:06.736-04:002017-03-25T20:36:06.736-04:00Lots of things you can do with straight-lines and ...Lots of things you can do with straight-lines and gently curves while quilting your tops and not use any free motion quilting(stippling).Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530748998376076224noreply@blogger.com
