Bev, I spent yesterday rip, rip, ripping, too. Hope today is better. I love the fabric you're using, I usually don't use patriotic fabrics. I've been wanting to do the Covering America pattern for 2 yrs (I have a loooong list of "want to's") and didn't want to use red, white & blue. After seeing the variety you can use, I may rethink that. Better luck today to both of us.
Anne, I almost used red and green with the geese but decided to go with the orange so it looked like geese feet. I love how yours turned out; not washed out at all. 10% done???? Wow-that feels good.
