The boring bits

When I started this patchwork and quilting, the bit I found most tedious was layering the backing/batt/quilt top and pinning it all together.
I *hated* that bit.

I take it back.

Burying thread ends after FM quilting...
If they would only bury themselves!!

(no subject)



I had a lovely day out, and was going to share, but have developed stinking headache, and no one is reading/cares anyway, so why I bother.

done, but with errors

may be a computer message but it also applies to my feathered star wall hanging. This is the piece that has stretched my sewist skills (or lack of them) the most. Earlier today, I completed the quilting and started to square up. Only... I used a wide stripe for the border, and now it is very obvious however I square it up, it will not look square. It will not look right.

so disappointed.
