Thinking about your quilt top....don't judge it to harshly...think of it as a bright and beautiful encouragement. I thought it was lovely and could only see the time it took you to help finish it. After all, the joy in a race is the pleasure of the process of walking or running, and in this case finishing up. What a blessing you are to help and get this finished. 99% of all whom see this quilt will love it, and really know it had to be made with love, as you gave of your time....and you shareed yourself with your sister's burden of getting it finished! And as for the quilt police.....well, don't sign up....less judgement on our quilt tops will mean we can get more of them done, heh?
