    I can see why the lines would be boring, but you hung in there and created a real treasure.
    whats your secret from getting a sore left finger...mine is so sore and scarred and I'm only half done with quilt...I've tried the spoon, plastic sticky things and new skin...can only do it about a half hour at a time
    haven't tried nail polish, will, the new ski is liquid bandage but doesn't protect all that good...nail polish would be thicker, thanks

    Have you tried to paint your finger with several coats of clear nail polish? Or several coats of liquid bandaids? Just a thought. n2.

    :D :D

    ditto. That would have taken me 20 years of hand-quilting. Congrats to you. It looks amazing.

    Very pretty. And I'm sure very time consuming. :thumbup:

    I like the lines. I think it gives it a feel like a woven Navajo rug.

    Beautiful. You do gorgeous work. I've never done a strip quilt but have been thinking about doing one with scraps one of these days.
