doodlebug Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 i got this quilt and was so proud of myself figuring out how to quilt all those borders....it has pieced sashings too, but i'm quilting them as a whole... so i doodle on it (with my mylar sheets) and i decide on what i'm doing, so off i go to stitching...SID the striped outer border, check ....pearl the small green border, check....then i do the doodle in those green floating squares, check.... wait a minute..... *CRAP CRAP CRAP* how the heck did i miss that one border...

Shar Schmutz Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Shannon, If only I could quilt as good as your mistakes!!!! I love the quilting!!! I especially love the quilting you did with the floating green squares, going into my favorites. I have to confess, I just figured out how to retrieve Favorites without adding one to get there, I have to laugh at myself sometimes!!! Great job!!!
