.....because it won't be done by then!!!!!!
Every traditional quilter has a Baltimore Album in some stage of completion stuck in the closet. Here's mine. I learned two things from this project: one, it will take for blessed EVER to finish, and two, I don't like applique much! You see those little gathered bluebell flowers on the heart block? I would rather eat dirt than do more of them.
Regardless, I will perservere. I may only get one block a year done, but at that rate I can use my social security money to quilt it when it's done.
