Day Three Of The October 2023 Quilting Retreat
After all those hours of sewing, my quilt top still isn't finished. There still needs to be two more rows added. The reason it takes so long is every single seam is a partial seam. It'll take a month of Sunday's to finish it. The top and bottom are supposed to be trimmed straight after the quilt top is finished, but I think I'll fill the spaces in with big triangles. There would be a lot less waste that way.
