This little ditty was begun about 7 years ago. It was assembled, pinned and quilted about one-fourth of the way. Then I got scared and took it apart down to the quilt top. Whereupon I replaced a few blocks.
Once again, I assembled and pinned it, but took another look and worried some more. So I took it all apart. And replaced more blocks.
You can see where some of the quilting lines are drawn in.
Why all the work? Some of you may remember a Springmaid brand black that literally disintegrated in the wash. I owned some, but was not sure which was used where in the quilt. So I removed any questionable black. Finally, I think it's ready to be finished. Let's hope those marking lines come out.
On a side note, thanks to all of you who left messages regarding my dearest pal. As always, your kind thoughts and words were most appreciated.
Until then, keep stitchin' . . .
