I’m at the shop and don’t have anywhere to take a good shot of the entire quilt top, but I do want to show off the 4 corners, all posing together:

Aren’t they pretty?

What I REALLY want to do is load the backing up and get started quilting this baby, but it’s going to have to wait a bit.  Some other stuff is in before it in the quilting queue.  Plus, I know that as soon as I do load, I’m going to suffer from complete and abject terror at the thought of actually quilting it.  My brain is a strange place.  On the one hand, I’m in love with this quilt and can’t wait to quilt it, because hey, quilting is WHAT I DO, and most of them I’m pretty good at it…

But on the other hand:  I’m my own worst critic, and will worry the ENTIRE time that I’m screwing it up.  I’ll try to keep the angst to a minimum.

Plus, once it is quilted and bound, it will go to a new home, and I’ll never see it again, and I’ll always worry about it.

So yes, there will probably be a little angst.

And yes, my customer does read the blog, and is probably now wondering a bit about my sanity.  It’s OK, really!  I’m having fun!  Truly!
