Don't you just love the feeling you get when you finish a quilt!! I am feeling very satisfied right now. And to top it off, I really like the quilt. I am one of those who just can't visualize the final quilt until it is done. I envy those of you who have "the vision."
I remember diagramming also. Only, I thought was a big pain in the A##! Mrs Greene will probably come and haunt me now!
I loved diagramming sentences! Very few of us in the class liked diagramming...I swear I can still remember doing them and getting so enthused about it all while other kids sat there with eyes glazed over.
