Sometimes you should give up


I haven't quite, but I'm fairly close. You wouldn't believe the pain and suffering I've gone through with the whole cloth and still not a stitch in sight nor even close to one.
The hot weather didn't help either, however I'm determined to do at least some stitching so this little quilt relieved the tension and got me back in the mood. the variegated thread is Aurifil again. Lovely stuff to work with.

  3. Sally, if you ever give up the world will be a darker place. Love this little quilt in my favourite colours. Good luck when you next pick up the problem stitching.

  5. Sally, that's just gorgeous! I also love Aurifil thread. One question: did you plan where to put the "mini-feathers" for the background of this piece, or did you just decide as you went along? I love it!

  6. Maybe you could put that particular quilt away for a while, then pull it out and look at it with new eyes.
    It is so beautiful. You are so good.

  7. I have never seen such intricate quilting and think it would be such a shame if you didn't complete it.
