Rosemary - amazing work - and you do this for fun? You are bonkers! But, a beautiful Bonker. And I don't see anything wonky.

You want some chocolate? :lol:

Some of the imperfections stick out like a sore thumb to me (at the moment) and no I didn't starch the fabrics or anything I just started with the off cuts from my WotRott backing and then dug into my scrap box. Wasn't totally going for total perfection this time around, just fun and can I do I it, without it driving me up the wall. Although I probably will slow down and starch the next one.

But are the imperfections visible to the naked eye? :blink: Did you starch the bejayziz out of the fabric first?

I might well do at that. Although I still love the pattern and am contemplating doing another one to see if I can get it a bit more accurate next time. If I do, I will probably enter that one instead. I admit to a bit of rushing with this one, just to see if I could.

Holy moly Rosemary, you are bonkers! It's amazing. Are you going to enter it at FoQ in the miniatures section this year? You should.

Welll..... you could use it for a mug rug :whistle:

Approx. 8 3/4" square. Each strip was 3/16 wide finished (except when I went a bit wonky) It was much easier to sew on my treadle than on my modern Janome, because of the needle plate and teeth are closer together.

Rita, it would make a great leaders and enders project, once you decide on the size of your strips.

Lovely work Annis. I really like that quilting design. Having tried a few long-arm machines at a couple of shows I know that it's not that easy to do it well so I am very impressed.

Rosemary, I love that weed-whacker block and keep thinking about doing one myself. Well done.
