What I Learned Today

Today I learned that if you take your frustrations about life out by quilting a project you do not do the finest of jobs. But, on the other hand, I can stipple really, really fast when I am in a mood.

Briar Rose is quilted and the binding is cut and ready to be pieced. This will soon be finished.


On an up note, I don't hate this quilt as much as I did when I pieced the top. It's growing on me.

    "They" say don't quilt angry or tired or with out wine.
    I have frogged many many many a seam to prove this axiom.
    The quilt is looking good. Will you still be able to give it away?

    I think you did a fab job. I'm happy to hear it's kind of growing on you - it stinks working on a project that you don't think is pretty.

    It does look better and a wash will improve it even more. I hope it helped, I have done the same many times.

    Congratulations! I hope your day has much improved!
    Somewhat randomly I'm piecing a Briar rose quilt at the moment. In theory I like all the fabrics, but it just seems so overly busy now I wish I'd popped in some solids. Hopefully when it's done i'll feel better about it.
