    Thank you for your quick response. One of the reasons I prewash is to shrink the fabric.

    My sample top is done!

    I just have to shout and you all will understand the feeling: my SAMPLE TOP IS DONE!

    It takes time to do each Month because, in addition to the sewing, I am writing notes and taking photos to use in my blog, to supplement the pattern instructions.

    During the LIVE last week I said I was selling this top and am happy to say it has a wonderful buyer who will give it the quilting love it deserves. AND I don't have to finish it myself. Good for both of us.

    Keep at it and someday yours will be done too.

      Congratulations Barbara!!! Your quilting is alway a treat to admire. But as much as that, I love the way you tackle
      life in such an organized way. You accomplish so much, and your passion shines thru like a blue ribbon on a quilt.
      We are so very lucky to have you leading the forum. I have learned so much from you over the years. HelenW

        Congrats Barbara! Your quilt top is lovely! I especially like the gray background, which really pops the colors.
