My husband has also started quilting. He has completed 1 quilt, 1 top and is working on another one now.

I put in several hours today on my Dazzler Quilt. Seems there are several hundred triangle squares to do. I am about 3/4 of the way through them. Am I nuts or what?

I usually try to work on my hand quilting at least one hour at a time which really doesn't get very far (I'm quilting 1/4" inside all seams and there are a lot of little pieces) so last nite my sweet husband offered to help.That was my first clue that something was up but I accepted anyway because I do enjoy working with him when he's building something. He came back with the electric staple gun and asked where to start. Needless to say I'll be working ALONE!

Tim, I went back and looked at your quilt again after reading what you did with the CAD program. It's great. You wrote in a previous post that you thought this would be the only quilt you would make. Is that still true now that you've actually worked on making a quilt?

Oh, Kathy's story reminds me of one! A woman's husband offered to help her with the quilting part, said he'd thread the needles. She thought this was wonderful...right up until she realized he'd taken a ruler and measured where each small straight line of quilting would go along each edge of a triangle and threaded individual needles with exactly that length of thread! :lol:
