I think you have a pretty good handle on what you’ve got planned so far...it’s going to be stunning.

Help me here.....I’m worried about the red marking you have used. Have you used this marker before to know it will come off? I hope to see your quilt finished. It is going to be lovely with your quilting motifs.

I have not felt there was too much pushing, pulling or turning the quilt as I work.

I am going to have to try that.

I don't have any new suggestions but just wanted to say that the quilt is glorious and love your stencil for the open spaces. I can't wait to see the completed beauty!
