A writer I'm not, sometimes life just gives you a good story. My dad tells some of the best, maybe its an inherited trait. Glad you enjoyed my sewing adventure.

Whoop, whoop! Loved your story, because I've been there. that's why I don't cut the whole quilt out at once any more! i hear my husband's voice in my head,'Measure twice; cut once.' I still take as much of my machine apart as I can, and it's usually a teensy, weensy bit of thread hiding in the most improbable place - or the top thread caught under the spool or in the notch.
Your quilt is beautiful. Has the look of a beloved antique.

To all that asked there is no pattern. It started out as something else and I was inspired by grannies stars in fons and porters 2009 june issue I think. So I had to get out pen and paper and do some math because I didn't have the pattern just a picture of the quilt. You can find my inspiration on my blog that I'm not allowed to post here on the board. I might get in trouble for even mentioning that I have a blog. The rules here keep me guessing. So if I just made another boo-boo Im sorry in advance. I like to call this quilt my Variation of a variation, variation quilt.
