When I came to work this morning I was met at the main entrence by the janitor and security; saying that there was no electricity in the building, and that it wasn't expected back untill between four and ten tonight. Needless to say nothing much to do there, so I went home again and had a half efficient work day on my lap top, an early dinner, and finishing touches on the sashings for my SBS:
While doing the sashings I really have seen that my skill have improved over the time I have worked on this, and it's rather fun to see :o) Unfortunately was some of the early blocks so poorly made that they were impossible to make them fit, and I had to do them over; I have ripped out stitches and re-made five blocks - not too bad out of 140.
Next will be the the borders - they will probably take quite some time to do. And I need to work on some small projects for a while - my arms and shoulders need a rest (they ache like mad at the moment), and my sanity need to see something get finished within reasonable time *lol* Perfect for this will be the project for the
Four Seasons Quilt Swap, and I thing I will start thinking of what to make for
Chookyblue's Christmas Swap! I'm signed up! Are you? :)
Sincerely,
Anne Ida

Wow! Wow! Wow! And what a lovely trip down memory lane as far as your quilting journey goes.
Anne it's absoloutely stunning, you should be very proud of your work. Look forward to see it finished.
That is an awesome quilt. And it's finished. I think so many people start a quilt like that and give up after a few blocks. You've got tenacity!
Just a word : BRAVOOOO !
WOW! Such a lot of work! I wish you good luck with the borders, but it's good to work on some smaller projects first!
I'm working on the DJ at the moment, but when I finish it (in about 2,5 years :o)), I would like to make the SBS.
Your quilt looks absolutely stunning. The color choice is terrific. What an incredible achievement.
