I agree. I have so much trouble putting this quilt down as well. I have never made a quilt this addictive. I love everything about it too!
Yes I can relate after just finishing Anni's "In My Garden" as a BOM that had soooo much stitching in, but it was very addictive, hence why I am bursting to start this one, but have to finish TIS first!!!! Yours is looking great.
I think we're pretty much agreed that it's an addicting quilt! Not all of us have been stung yet, but I'm sure it will come!
I've been looking at fabric for the March blocks. I'm going to change up my house and garden a little and may not do the rainbow at all. We'll see. I'm not in a hurry but I'm thinking it might have been easier to do the blanket stitch than the needle turn.
Its good to see the first blocks in this section.
