Have you tried sewing all the borders together and then sewing them on the quilt? That makes it so much easier for me. I don't have to wrestle the quilt top but one time through the machine. At least you are sewing, that's a great day no matter what mishaps happen.
I wanted so much to sew all day but I promised to teach a guild member how to crochet this afternoon. And then I promised to be at a reception this evening in honor of another guild member. I'm proud for her but I don't like to get dressed up at all anymore. Give me jeans and tees!
