I agree! I've tried to soldier through the one I started 3 years ago, but just can't do it! I realized early on that lack of variety in the fabrics I have already cut out is part of the problem, but by far not the whole of it. At some point, I'll cut more tumblers and find a long, engrossing book on audible or a good TV series to binge on Netflix. Until then, all those tumblers will be "marinating" in their box. It could be awhile.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13469828219999900733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-4645534118382336692022-01-17T23:41:49.698-05:002022-01-17T23:41:49.698-05:00OH wow!

First, I love the varied backgrounds for the applique that add so much interest. Second, "motley assortment" of Christmas fabrics is what I have. (I tidied up that part of the stash last week and thought again that I ought to reduce that collection. Thanks for the design idea.) Third, thank you for walking through your quilting decisions for the magnificent Crystal Prisms.

It shuts up the little kid in your head that constantly asks "Are we there yet?". Those applique blocks are stunning! And you're doing needle-turn?!? You go girl! The quilting on Mildred's quilt is gorgeous and I would not have expected the choice of the Silver thread but it really works. We are all discouraged when we are on top of our work but when we step back or wrap the quilt around us or hang it on the wall, we then appreciate the beauty of creation in all its forms!

It was an "exercise in perseverance". I didn't think I'd ever have enough to make a lap sized cuddle quilt. But I finally did!

I will definitely remember that when I need a little extra smoothing done with a future project. Your Whig Rose blocks are looking great, and it’s wonderful when we find out that we are further along in a project than we had thought. I also enjoyed you thanking Rebecca from 2018. I’m looking forward to seeing your 2022 appliqué sew-along projects. I took an online appliqué class from Sarah during QuiltCon Together that was a lot of fun. She is a great teacher.
