Thank you everybody, your comments keep me going.
Have a small border to put on then must wait at least 12 days for the rest of the material. Want to put some applique on it so can prepare that while I wait.
We have just received some bad news and need to go back to the UK before Christmas, so this quilt won´t be ready by the time I wanted it to be.
Anyway preparation is good and I will keep going with that for as long as I can.
