    you do go blind. i work so close to the project making sure all those little pieces match up.

    you just can't ease in a seam when its a 1/4 square.

    LOL. My first quilt teacher (now a dear friend) used to reassure me that you could "fiddle fudge" just about anything if you had to (but try not to have to) and that "you can't see a quarter inch from the back of a galloping horse"! LOL. Of course her quilts are PERFECT, the biotch. (We are good enough friends I can say that). But you are right, you CAN'T fiddle fudge a quarter inch!

    Personally, I think you are a genius when it comes to design!

    i'm humbled by everyone's comments i'm happy to do tute on any of the quilts you see me post.

    none of them are difficult to do - i'm really a simple type quilter.

    this way you can make either one small panel or you can make 6 and end up with the same quilt that i'll have.
    Klue this is beautiful, and I can't wait for the tute!

    I'm glad you've finished this fabulous quilt for your ROMANTIC husband. Sounds like a great relationship.

    I remember this quilt from your first posting - unless you've done more than one Illusion quilt? Looking forward to the tute.
