So far I have 13 blocks completely outlined and I have a jump on two more. This is definitely a slow and steady process. The hard part is getting a callous built up on my under finger after I take time away from hand quilting. I also ended up taking off my acrylic nail I had on my thumb, it kept splitting and lifting, so I thought I'd take the summer to give my thumbnail a rest and give it another go in the fall. Sharon
Perseverance is the ticket! No matter what stage you are at it is such a beautiful work in progress. Once The Wedding is complete my plan is to sit on the deck with a cool drink and quilt. Just need to place the bulk of it on the patio table as the weather warms....
ReplyDeleteKeep stitching!!

ReplyDeleteLooking just wonderful - keep up the good work! I find a break does make all the difference and that is why I have a few projects on at once - using different techniques. Hand quilting needs to be enjoyable too :)
