Looking back I found that I started this quilt on Nov. 17th, 2010. It was a whole lot of work and there were months at a time that I didn't work on it. I got it on the quilting frame probably 5 months ago? (not sure). My machine was working so horribly that I gave up after spending more time trying to get it stitching well than I was actually quilting.

Yesterday I just walked into the room and started quilting. No warming it up, no testing, nothing. Of course it worked just fine and I finished the quilting this morning. I have the binding about ready to sew on so it will be almost a year in the making. It's for my daughter and maybe THIS Christmas she'll get it.

it's a beauty. Glad you were able to quilt on with no further problems. Makes you wonder, don't it?

This quilt is stunning the colours used and the quilting well done and the backing is to die for. will have to see if I can find similar backing in Qld.
