Molasses in February...

Oh my, I'm a slow quilter.

I love piecing, all that slicing and sewing back together, and the look of a finished top all freshly ironed.

Then there's the quilting part. For some reason, that's my least favorite, which would explain all the flimsies in my Duffle Bag of Doom. Maybe because I'm just not very fast at it...I don't know.

Or maybe it's because I chose to take three passes at every row.


It's taking me forever, but I'm getting there.

It is absolutely beautiful. I scrolled down to the photo of the entire top to get an idea of how it would look quilted. It will be a special gift.

I love multiple rows of stitching too and then I kick myself for starting it and knowing I have to continue it. I like the look of it better than free motion quilting.

That quilting will make the quilt so functional. It's a good decision.
