Top complete, mistakes and all. I found that with me, sometimes it's worse to try to correct the mistakes rather than just leave them. I tend to make problems worse, LOL.

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous!!! And there are no mistakes, remember that.

Wow, what a great job you did, awesome.

They say the Amish always put an on purpose mistake in each quilt since only God is perfect. Well, maybe I'm just Amish (to the 10th degree, LOL).

It is absolutely gorgeous!

No one will know about the "mistakes" except you. I found that out doing petit point roses a few years ago. I had made a number of mistakes but no one but me could tell.

Looks great, Cyn! I might have to use that pattern for a quick quilt fix! You got it done so fast, it has inspired me to dust off the sewing machine.

The pattern really is easy. My stupid eyesight is what made this hard for me. I need BIG pieces and maybe a better quilting ruler with easier to see numbers.

Here's what I do....

When I need to cut the same size over and over, I take a post-it and stick it right up to the line I need on the ruler. Now instead of looking for the right 1/8th inch line, all I need to do is line it up with the post-it. Works well on strip cutting, and squaring up.

Good tip! Thanks! I think the next thing I do will be to quilt the lap quilt from the staff's block swap. It's in the hoop, ready to go. Then, I'll make an Attic Windows, then quilt this Jewel Box quilt. I think. I have two complete kits for bed quilts sent to me by Kathyinmo for after that.
