    Don't you dare. Even seams and good pressing make my life easy.

    I used always do a panto and they don't hide quilting mistakes and today I said I have to quilt it different so her mistakes don't show. I just hope she's ok with it.

    You certainly made a silk purse out of pigs ears! Wish you were close to me and do my machine quilting,

    Well you've sold us on your fantastic quilting ability!!! Now, if I may ask, did you take her quilt apart and resew some seams before you quilted it? Or, were you really able to setttle things down by the quilting you chose? I apologize in advance if it's now allowed to ask this "trade secret" information.

    I think you've worked a miracle! Oh those wavy boarders are a quilters nightmare and your finished work is amazing, bless you for helping one of our pioneer quilters, she will love it.

    I gotta say you should be very proud of yourself. You were faced with a challenge and came out on top. Beautiful quilting and now beautiful quilt.

    I am in awe of what you were able to do with a very big challenge. None of us are perfect (and I'm the MOST imperfect person I know!), but you turned her quilt into a showpiece. Bless you for your hard work!
