Congratulations! I would never be able to give that one away. I have lots of FABRICS for quilts, but no actual quilts or even quilt tops. I would have to make a dozen or more before I would bear to give one away. (OK, except the one baby quilt I did make and give away.) I guess I feel differently about stitching. Some of what I stitch is definitely for others and not me. But maybe that is because I HAVE stitched dozens of patterns and know that I will stitch more. I don't know if I will ever finish a large quilt.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17968531508224415029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30105258.post-89112979360446951782010-01-17T16:24:27.076-06:002010-01-17T16:24:27.076-06:00Wow, changing the center block definitely made a h...Wow, changing the center block definitely made a huge improvememt.
