Have you been tempted to hand-quilt the outlines of the fussy-cut centers, rather than tying them? E.g., a running stitch around the flower, or dragon fly? It would go well with your SID quilting!

And finally, 27° F? Are you kidding me? We had single digit temps last week!
Thank you. No, I'm just going to tye this one & ship it. DD/DGD are waiting for it's arrival for Christmas. I already shipped one to them, but told DD to wait until this one arrives to choose the one she wants;otherwise they'll fight over it. LOL!

Yes, 27 degrees last night & we're in sunny Florida! Had to bring in my plants & tomatoes! Shades of New England! LOL.
