    I merely wanted show that I AM working on my quilt. This is going to take forever!!!!! I see a lot of things I knew I should have done differently but this started out as a trial project. I should have used proper thread color while piecing and I shouldn't have tried mitred corners. Now it has turned into a practice custom quilting. But, I still like it. "THEN I SHOULD HAVE"..............story of my life, lol As long as I keep learning, I'm happy.
    Sorry, you can still see the chalk lines in the border.

    I KNEW this one would be even more gorgeous once you started quilting it! How big is this quilt? Do you actually get to put it on your bed? I love it--SO much work!

    i'll be darned if i can see a single thing wrong with it. it's beeeuoooteeefaminous. :P

    i have a few white stitches peeking out from black seams on my current project. i'll fix that with a paint pen. (that's if i can find the spots again now that it's been washed. :lol: )

    i'll bet that would solve your problem, too, IF they still show up after washing. ;-)
