I would give it extra love and cuddle with it often :)<br />Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08619642267222624728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149467485932327550.post-4244438894832966502016-04-20T18:52:19.960-04:002016-04-20T18:52:19.960-04:00I was glad to read your update today, even if it d...I was glad to read your update today, even if it didn't turn out the way you wanted.

I know this is little consolation, but if you most assuredly have saved at least one other person from doing the same thing. It is a stunning quilt even with its little imperfection.
