Wish I could FMQ as lovely as you have done here. Sorry for the problem, that is something I could do for sure. Hope all the tiny stitches come out easy enough for you. Blessings.

So sorry this happened because your quilting is absolutely gorgeous. I just did the same thing on a lap throw and picking out those little threads just about drove me crazier than I already am. You are a wonderful FMQ so keep on sewing!

Boy oh boy!!!Not a fun mess but we have all been there. When I get close to the edges, I pull my piece off the machine and spray baste it just one more time. So far (knock on wood) it has kept me from doing that again. Hope this little tip helps you. Just go slow and you will get it all picked out.

Am so sorry for you - been there and done that. It takes ages to unpick and to avoid it the second time I hand basted the area with washable thread. I wish you well and look forward to the seeing the quilt finished.

Sorry for your trouble but I would guess most of us quilters have had this same thing happen. It is hard picking those stitches out and such a pretty quilting you have done. Good luck don't stress to much.
