The binding is finished by hand - that final step completed whilst watching new episodes of "Call the Midwife"..and in between crying jags. What IS it with that show? Always with the crying!
Backing with cross-hatch quilting. |
"I like it!"
"It's growing on me"
"At first I didn't like it, but now I do"
"I don't really like it, but I want to keep looking at it"
"Why are the horses pink?"
"That yellowy green fabric kind of looks like puke"
I started to feel like Robert Mapplethorpe or something - creator of controversial but interesting artworks, and all the opinionating left me with no further clarity on the quilt. Sometimes you get so deep with a project that you don't have any perspective anymore on if what you've been working on is crap or not. That's when other people come in handy. But to hear everything from "it's great", to "it looks like puke" isn't helpful.
So, here it is world. Make of it what you will.
