Well, here's news! I'm abandoning ship for awhile. I have been in such a frenzy to crank these things out and get done that I found I wasn't enjoying it. I have no need to finish the blocks by any deadline at this point. As I've said, I'm still handquilting a queen size bed quilt. Until that is done, I can't start quilting the FW.
I have really been yearning to do a "regular" quilt. So the FW is on hiatus for now. I have just 16 blocks left to do, so I can always stick one in here and there before I'm ever ready to start putting it together.
Once I made the decision, I was very happy and couldn't wait to get into the quilt room to see which quilt from my closet I am going to make! I have bought so much fabric for various quilts, that I have enough quilting ready to keep me busy for many a year, or maybe a lifetime.
So if you abandon for the PC, you can be like me and just do a block here and there on FW. We are both too far along to never get it finished.
