And yes, because of you, when this one is done, there will be another. You are all so great! Thank you
Not to disrespect your grandmother, but she probably did not do her quilting by machine.
I agree that FMQ or SID is hard. When I started quilting I said that I would do the WHOLE thing by myself....well, now I have revised that idea - some quilts I will do the whole thing and some will go to a LAQ.
