Good Ideas
Sometimes I hate it when I get a “good” idea. You know the ones. They’re good in that they will improve a quilt greatly, but bad because they’ll take a lot of time or tedium to implement.
And that’s where I am now. Only, I got my good idea AFTER the quilt was finished!
Yep. Signed. Label sewn on. Sleeve attached. The works.
Oh, why didn’t I realize I needed to do this sooner? So, I’m in the midst of taking apart a finished quilt, reworking it and, and putting it back together with a lot of hand stitching.
This sure better turn out the way I think it will!
Still, I know this won’t be the last time I find myself in such a spot. Once I think of the right thing, I’m just not happy with the quilt until I do it.

P.S. I can take my quilt apart because it was faced after quilting. Small blessings.
