This finish has been a very long time coming. You might remember I started this all the
way back in January 2011 as a de-stashing project. The after fits and starts, got the
top together in October of that year. I started to straight-line quilt it on the machine, but wasn't happy. Because the solid pink was such a loose weave, the whole thing was distorting.
So I felt very de-motivated for a while and moved onto other things. Literally tossed it into the "too hard" basket. Around August 2012 I was in the right head space to dig it out again. It took me about 4 months to unpick all the machine quilting and start again.
Now it's all hand-quilted, and I'm so glad I made the effort. Well worth it :)
