I tried making a similar quilt this summer and while it came out nice it didn't have nearly the softness of yours. Rita is going to be in the US teaching this Spring. I really, really, really wanted to enroll but just didn't have enough vacation time to use for both Quiltcon and a long quilt weekend. Guess I'll just have to stop working.....right?!? :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222695502886799120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222010192421604268.post-9554942097979445742014-12-12T10:11:15.558-05:002014-12-12T10:11:15.558-05:00You nailed it!
