Can't wait to see it when it is finished.
I know the feeling ! hand-quilting is one place I always feel the Quilt Police looking over my shoulder. love to do it, just need to get over that the stitches have to be small & even. I think all that comes with practice, which I do get enough of.
have a Birds of the State (48) that my MIL embroidered that I started hand-quilting in 3/4" grids. now have to finish like that. maybe this is the Winter to do that. now that I see so many telling the quilt police to go jump.
