Is it actually possible to make a quilt...a whole quilt...without either drawing blood, running out of bobbin thread, or having to pull out at least one seam?????
Just curious.
I hear laughter from the Heavens and an etherial voice that says "Got ya agin'"

It would have to be a VERY small quilt....

It would have to be a "cheater" panel for me, with extremely simple grid quilting!

No.

Only on the 2nd Tuesday of the 5th week of the month. ;)

No, I hate to be chaining along and not paying attention that the bobbin thread was gone 2-3 sqs. ago and have to backtrack.

I thought that was written into every pattern??
Q- Quit poking my finger
U- Under the table is wher everything rolls
I- fell Inside the machine
L- Lost the seam ripper
T-Tomorrow I will finsh that WIP UFO

Nope, no way in my house at least. LOL

lol my personal answer to that is NO. Even if it would just be one block, one if not all of those things would happen for me.

I didn't know that was even a possibility!!!

Yes, but only in the Twilight Zone.

Well of course! Whats wrong with ya?? :lol: :lol: LOL

Not in my experience but then I'm new.

Nope.

It's never happened here. I have all those problems daily.

Well, honey, there was a time before the quilt police arrested the good quilt fairy! WWWay before my time.

Only in my wildest of dreams :D:D:D

Honey do you want the truth or the REAL story? :D

lol

this thread cracks me up, because I have thought the same thing! I figure that there will always be a part of me in every quilt I make LOL Drew blood yesterday...

Not here either! LOL

NOPE, can't be done

I'd be very wary of anyone that told you YES. If they lie about that, they'll lie about other things too. LOL
The good thing is that it's like labor pains---once you see the end result the pain diminishes quickly. Otherwise no one would ever have a second child or make a second quilt.

Easy answer.....No!

You are kidding....right?????? :lol:

Ditter

I thought every quilt made required blood, sweat, tears and a little cussing.

hahahahaha

OH come on.......get real...!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hahaha SOME of your responses are funny!! Yeah - ya CAN do it - I have only seen VERY EXPERIENCED quilters design a whole cloth quilt Iat the Houston Quilt Show) - they used an air gun and created beautiful scenes, and then quilted by hand I believe. Could YOU do that?? huh?? Can ya? I sure as H--- could NOT! I am a 16 year "beginner" my hair is white so I would NEVER finish it before I was "finished"! Good luck tho!------ let us see it IF you decide to do it!---

snicker

When you find a way let the rest of us know. LOL

only if you believe the tooth fairy and the easter bunny have started quilting.

I can't speak from experience, lol...

Maybe a quilted postcard!

No and I will add another, sew it back on the same way it was before I ripped. My son hears me saying ohhhhhhhhhhh noooooooooooo, and he yells out rip it out. lol Jolo

Not for me either, plus as Jolo says, sew it back the same way. I've done that more times than I want to admit!!

Maybe in my next life!

I this a trick question??????????????????

That voice isn't from Heaven, it's the quilting imps. They giggle every time you poke yourself or reach for a ripper. They will also kick your fabric off the table, hide your cutter, put your pins on the floor and sometimes even pull your fabric so that your seam wiggles. They get pretty quiet when we win and get a quilt done---you won't hear a peep out of them. That is until you start your next project.
