What a great idea!
I gave a hand-appliqued wall hanging, the one in my avatar, to a dear friend for his anniversary. It wasn't completed yet, but he and his wife got to see what it was becoming! It took another 7 weeks to finish it, they said it was worth the wait! Had I tried to rush it, I'm sure I would have had to take some shortcuts and probably not done some of the embroidery.
When a project is rushed, the thought in my mind is "finish it." But when I have a lot of time I think, "How can I make this better?"
