I'm sure we all have similar stories to tell. Mine is that I made a king size quilt that probably was big enough to cover half a football field before it was done. Lots of yardage in that one. lol - such memories

See - the quilt was destined for Alaska from the moment you started it!

But you learned a lot of 'what not to do", right? I am exactly the same way! Sometimes I think the real fun of quilting is fixing my mistakes - or is it seam ripping? I do an awful lot of that!

I made my first two quilts over 30 years and then didn't quilt again until about 10 years ago. Things have really changed in the quilting world since I first started!
