Your quilt is beautiful.
I was having the same trouble with thread breaking every 2-4 inches a couple wks ago...drove me crazy. Haven't tried it again since, and I don't want to give up. What is the secret you learned...please share.

Same with King TUT, had to take a large TS needle as well and even a different thread in the bobbin.
Crossing fingers you'll be able to finish your project!

BTW, love your quote about worry, have to keep this in mind. Thank you!
