Tomorrow is Friday Night Sew-In and I hope you are ready! It really is a good time to reward yourself with some sewing time. What will you be working on?
I had a dilemma. A couple of posts back, I talked about 2 quilts that I was making. One I finished piecing the top and the other the blocks were finished. As the finished one hung on my design wall while I was just too busy to get much sewing done, I grew increasingly dissatisfied with it. I knew that if I didn't take drastic measures, it would become a permanent UFO. So after looking at several blogs and other web sites for ideas, I took out a clean sheet of graph paper and started over. Of coarse that meant that I needed to rip out the entire quilt top. I recut some pieces and added new some fabric. It is now, once again, a work in process. I still need to rip out the stitching on all the blocks for the second quilt and recut but I have a renewed interest in these quilts. I saved them from becoming UFO's! [Sorry I never took before pictures.] Has this ever happened to you? How did you handle your situation? I'd love to hear!
Will be back on Saturday for the results of my Friday Night Sew-In!
