    Some of the imperfections stick out like a sore thumb to me (at the moment) and no I didn't starch the fabrics or anything I just started with the off cuts from my WotRott backing and then dug into my scrap box. Wasn't totally going for total perfection this time around, just fun and can I do I it, without it driving me up the wall. Although I probably will slow down and starch the next one.

          Rosemary - amazing work - and you do this for fun? You are bonkers! But, a beautiful Bonker. And I don't see anything wonky.

          You want some chocolate? :lol:

            :woohoo: :woohoo:

            Nice work, Rosemary. My eyes are twitching just thinking about it!

              Rosemary,
              That's amazing work. I can't imagine sewing something that small. You should enter it into the FoQs.

                  Terrie - you won't get any refusals from me!

                  Thanks for all the nice comments. I took it into work to show the ladies there. The one lady I don't really get on with suggested that I should have been doing housework instead of making it hmy: :S I knew there must be a good reason that we didn't get on :P

                    She actually said, "You should have been doing housework instead of making it????"

                      Rosemary, Steer clear of that one. She is not good for your mental health.

                        That's my feelings exactly. I mean to say, if I had done the house work, come next week, you would never have known how I had spent my time, and it would still need doing again. But with a quilt it stays made and pretty no matter how long afterwards you look at it.

                          Rosemary, I think that woman (obviously NOT a lady!) is jealous of you because you are so talented! Your quilt is lovely!

                              That's why I haven't done housework in years..... :S

                              You just keep doing what you're doing. You know who your friends are, and we'll always be here to ensure that you have a messy house! :evil:

                                Rosemary... I love to mess with people like that. Here's what I would like to have said.

                                With a large, impish grin on my face, "Oh I have a cute boy toy that does housework for me!" And watch her choke on her spit. :unsure:

                                PS. Your quilt is amazing and for having suffered the slings of an idiot co-worker you are hereby excused from any and all housework for a month! Now go sew! B)
