    When making a special quilt for that special person(s), do you ever find that you just about cry when you get close to finishing it???

    I am working on a wedding quilt for my son and DIL-to-be. I have been posting my progress here as a sort of quilt diary! Yet, as I near completeion, I find that working on it chokes me up and puts tears in my eyes.

    I am not sure if it is the story of them finally getting to that point in their lives or what. I just become emotional with it and have to set it aside and wipe the eyes so I make sure I can match things well....

    In quilting do you ever find you have a change of mind on how you feel about a color?
