Whole cloth hand quilting

I received this queen-sized whole cloth quilt from a coworker.  Her partner's mom passed away, leaving behind this almost-finished lovely muslin beauty.  She was a pretty fair hand-quilter.  I hope to do it justice and get it finished some one of these days.  It's really tough on the fingers, though, thus, the thimble.

  2. Finishing that for someone is such a meaningful and loving assignment. I hear you on the thimble though! I really like the stick on pads called thimble-it since they get in just the right spots. Maybe try them if you find yourself still suffering.

    thanks for your very kind comment on my post yesterday =)
