I bought this material years ago at JoAnn's for my DGD who did not like it, so it sat, unused and unloved. Now, hopefully it will be loved by someone. The best advice I got for stopping and restarting was to "needle up," move a space and start there. It seemed to help. The jerky spots are from several contributors such as failure to "puddle" the quilt, stopping to remove pins, cats sitting on the quilt, and failure to plan my path of travel before I came out of a spiral.
