Take My Advice


Here's a little advice from me to you friends~ Never, never, never, never, never try to make a cute little quilt that you saw a picture of in a fancy spancy quilt book with 1" finished squares without a real pattern because you'll just get frustrated and have to re-cut and then re-sew and then rip out several seams and those pesky little squares still won't line up just right and if you ever do figure out how to get those pesky little 1" squares lined up you know the next step is to make lots of pesky little triangles. Especially at 10:00 at night. Okay??

  1. i had a similar experience recently and found myself marveling at the truth of Genesis and how God created the UNIVERSE in 7 days (and it was good!), that included little stuff too!! It took me 1/2 a day to make a mitten, just don't ask me how many times i can mess up an elastic wristband ok?! God bless your heart and have lovely day.

  2. Oh my. Well, at least your ambitious!
    I'm starting out slow with quilting... not much of a sewer as of yet I'm afraid. *sigh
    It looks lovely by the way! You got it together, which is much more than I ever could have done!
