Congrats on finishing your frogging! It's amazing that what you can quilt in 5 minutes on a longarm will take hours to un-quilt! Happens to all of us, sometimes on customers' quilts. They have no idea what we go through for them from time to time, lol....

Are you looking for an Asian pattern? I looked through my pantographs, and the only one I have like that is called Asian Elegance. I haven't used it yet. It's more densey quilted than what I usually prefer. When I do use it, I'll probably enlarge it a bit, but it's already 14" wide. I have another panto called "Eternal Flame", which I think would look nice on your quilt. Also, "Enchanted", "Fleurs des Lys", or "Starburst". The only one I have which is geometric, is a pattern board called "Contempo", but if it were my quilt, I'd want curves in the quilting to contrast with all the straight line piecing. jmho. Beautiful quilt, by the way!

Good for you!! I am very much like you in that once I've decided I have to take it out, then determination sets in and I will work on and on.. Somewhere deep inside of people like you and I is a tiny voice that says it's truly the best thing to do and that we will be happy when its fixed. I figure it this way.. It may take a month to fix it (or more), but in a year that time will be spent anyway.. so, I can love my project when it finally is finished or every time I look at it think I should have just gone ahead and fixed it because I'd still be unhappy if I hadn't!! It's always worth fixing it when it comes to something like a quilt... Again, GOOD for YOU!
