This is the largest of the quilts, and boy, what a quilt, I will never forget this one.
With every stitch I made, the batting come out the other side.  I frogged it forever ___
I thought it was the tension, then the thread, then the needle, but no it was the batting.

Sorry to hear about the frogging! I've had that happen too with batting. I love scrappy quilts!

Used a panto, country flower, but I was so stressed out that I hate that panto now, just because you want it to be perfect it turnes out to be.................what is your tool? I used an old needle from the machine so not to make holes or pull up the wrong threads.

    Today I can say "thirty years in waiting"  is finished I had made a queen size quilt with these fabrics and I missed it so that I had started another but put it away for a rainy day.    So happy that I found the box many years later and was able to get it finished at last!! A nine patch or simple irish chain, so off I went with my box, and this is what it turned into.... I am so pleased, and it is big enought to use on the dining room table. I have a few squares left, maybe enought to make a place setting or something. The quilting design is from My Creative Stitches  Monday Patch Vacation time is over and we are back to our art!! Two of the gals have finished their giant wedding ring, one is ready to be quiltied and another is alread to go on the table.  Quilting in lines, it turned out really nice. Another double wedding ring but traditional  still lots of pieces to sew, but it is going to be beautiful ! Someone is starting her birds, ravens...
