Remember this baby from back on August 5, 2011? Well I am halfway through quilting it!!! Last night I was able to get two stencils done which put me exactly at halfway! I know what you are thinking...two and a half years and that's all the further you have gotten? Well for one thing I set it aside and didn't pick it back up until late October 2014 so it sat around for about two years not being touched at all. Also The stencil I picked to quilt onto this quilt is very intricate. Each Stencil covers three and a half little rectangles and takes approximately 40 minutes or so to do. I will pick it up some days and get only two stencils done and not touch it for a week. Other times I am like addicted to working on it and I will get 40 stencils done in 5 days or so. It just depends on my mood, what is going on in my life and how sore my fingers are at that time.
It's looking amazing! My goal is to have it finished by the end of March! Yikes! That deadline is looming over me! I just hope I can make it!
