Well this never-ending saga is just that....never-ending. I hope the soldier who gets this quilt, has a clue as to what kind of hours went into this for him/her. :) Oh well, the soldier is so deserving, it doesn't matter....look what he/she is doing for me. Back to the saga...got my machine all good with the tension problem. I had left the quilting in on the first part that did OK. Tried to repin it back on the leaders....CANNOT get it on straight. I've repinned it 4 times....OK!!!! I'm just going to rip ALL the quilting out and try to start from scratch AGAIN!!! I'm working on some of it tonight, and my DH will work on it tomorrow. I'm so lucky that he loves to take out my stitches that are messed up. He's my #1 seam ripper!! :) Thanks....I needed to vent some more!!
