Your quilt is off to a great start and will be beautiful when you complete it-keep moving on. I also have MD in one eye so I know exactly what you are saying about the situation. I appreciate all of the comments made by others regarding this condition because there are nuggets that shed light on the condition and the struggle that goes along with it. Every day that I can sew and read is a blessing. My doctor is amazed at things I continue to do and so I keep on keeping on!

I am excited about my bargello quilt, as I was really worried about cutting the strips. I don't actually "see" a straight line because of my eyes (macular degeneration), and I have relied on my Shape Cut ruler for all my quilting. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to fold the strips in sizes that I could use the Shape Cut ruler for.
But I can. I got to the step I was worried about this morning, and I can do it! I am pretty excited, as starting this quilt was a bit of a "leap of faith."
Here is where I am now. I want to thank all of you who gave me hints for making a Bargello and help on fabric selection. This continues to be fun.

Sew anxious to see your completed project. Love your colors! I'm getting the shape cut after the first of the year if I don't get one for Christmas. Told him no more jewelry. I don't wear everything I have now. Told him sewing/quilting notions and supplies for me.
