half way there.

 I have 11 rows out of 21.  
Quilted.  
On one side.
The quilt still needs to be rotated and have 
the horizontal side quilted as well.
It's funny.  
As much fussing as I did in my mind 
about taking on such a large quilt, 
it really isn't bad.
Truly.  
It is just one stitch at a time.
Soon enough winter will find it's
way to this part of the country and we
will be cozy and warm underneath.

    I was nervous to do a king at first but now I am thinking of doing another even bigger so hopefully we do not fight over covers anymore.

    I agree, it's amazing how quickly all those little stitches add up. You are going to love snuggling under this during the winter.

    You are so fast! Is that how you quilt it , all laid out on the table? I have never hand quilted before. My mother-in-law has and she used a quilt rack. Do you have it pinned or tacked somehow?

    It looks like a lot of work, but it will be so... special when it's finished and on your bed.

    Isn't it exciting when you're on the "home run" to finishing your quilt.

    Lovely fabrics, your cosy quilt conjures up images of snowy landscapes, cosy toes and steaming mugs of hot chocolate.
