Hand Quilting Black Hole

I am currently living in what I will call "the hand quilting black hole."

I picked hand quilting and finishing Park Ranger Boyfriend's Civil War quilt as my January goal for the Lovely Year of Finishes and that might have been a wee bit over ambitious. Blerg.

So that's basically all that I've been working on the last week or so.

Thus far the quilting is done for three and a half rows of the blocks in the center.



The quilting is going well....just very, very slowly.

Check out what everyone else has been working on at WIP Wednesday and the Lovely Year of Finishes mid-month check in!

    Hi. This is really cool. Good for you hand quilting it! Something about a chemistry grad student being a quilter tickles my fancy. :)

    Even if you don't finish it by the end of the month, it's well worth the time put into it. That's something to be very proud of.

    LOL! Black hole cracks me up! I am doing a large applique project that seems to be sucking up so much time! I think you will be so pleased when you finish it!!!!
