Love the post title.<br />Your quilting is fabulous, good on you, I'm still too chicken to do anything adventurous. The scrappy binding will be the perfect finish.

Your quilt pattern looks gorgeous. And good luck on getting your kids to realise you exist outside them.... <br />ps, we cancelled all the kids tv channels a couple of weeks ago and were shocked to realise they didn't even miss them!

Fantastic! Abd the walrus methapor is perfect for large quilts. It's HARD work!<br /><br />Have fun with the scrappy binding.

Great metaphor for the quilting process, though. The quilt looks fabulous Susan. I hate the quilting bit myself but I LUV binding - something so therapeutic about it as a finish.

I think I might have said it before, but can't wait to see the quilt finished.tusenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16922105659781202661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524960354656106962.post-7657410279020474942011-07-23T18:50:20.073+01:002011-07-23T18:50:20.073+01:00Wrestling a walrus huh?

I can't FMQ curves, can't even doodle them, and the thought of FM wrestling a full size walrus has very little appeal, it's bad enough squeezing him in a straight line ;o)Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01551689919091586915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524960354656106962.post-5443827991115118922011-07-23T16:48:50.877+01:002011-07-23T16:48:50.877+01:00Great quilting - time for you to start checking fo...Great quilting - time for you to start checking for peculiar comments!
