What is your least favorite part of quilting? I have decided mine is pressing. I'd been done with this quilt a long time ago if I had a personal presser. It's a good thing I like coral and bright...

Wow, 2 degrees with 13 below makes it unlikely to add 10 minutes. 30 minutes was plenty. How many calories did I use just staying warm?
