I still have a few grandchildren who haven't received their quilt from gma yet, but other than that I make what I want. Right now I am working on a quilt that my mother started....she got the top finished before she died. I am doing the fmq to complete it, hopefully in the next couple days. It has been a struggle as her piecing skills were not the best and the quilt doesn't lay flat at all. Since it is a Broken Star (?) I have been putting just a few stitches at the corner of each small diamond piece to tack it down, and then some fmq in the outside squares. I work on it for a while, then take a break. I want so badly to make it look nice that I am overly critical of how my fmq looks and I stitch and rip, stitch and rip. It makes my brain hurt.
