From the front, I couldn’t see it.
But when I was pulling it off the frame, yes, there was a spot of thread snot.
You have my permission to make use of that term. It’s highly technical, you know.
I should have marked it last night when I first found it, because it took several minutes to re-find it this morning. I’m not entirely sure where that bit of thread snot came from. It doesn’t look like a thread shredding incident, and those incidents I usually know about because they make a nasty sound and then eventually the thread breaks.
That nasty spot has now been fixed, the edges are trimmed and this baby is ready for binding. Only, I can’t decide what to bind it with. I washed some fabric last night, and now that I’m looking at it, I don’t like it.
I was hoping to take some pictures at home this morning, in the good light, but…I got a pretty slow start this morning. And, there was a 2 hour school delay, so the boys were occupying the space where I usually lay quilts out for photo shoots.
Now that I’m at this point, it’s time to get some other stuff moving. Having this one done is a huge weight, and suddenly my list of things to do before Christmas seems alot more manageable.
Though, there’s plenty on it, so I’d better get moving.
TTFN-

Yes, it’s confirmed, I know it’s just cotton thread, but adding the word snot to it makes it gross.

I can’t wait to see the full photos of the quilt. Is this one yours or was it a commission?

I love the term “thread snot.” That’s exactly what it seems like when I find them. Your work is beautiful, very inspiring.
