Today, my goal was to finish piecing the half of a quilt top that I had laid out several weeks ago (my bed that was serving as design wall wasn't big enough for the entire top).

I did it!

I have a confession to make.  I am easily derailed by little mistakes and imperfections.  This quilt is going to be difficult for me to finish because of the quality of the white fabric I used.  It is a Moda muslin.  When I was making it I didn't realize that "muslin" means really cheapy fabric.  After using a higher-quality solid like the Kona solids, I know better.  This is going to have to be forced baby steps to get it complete.  Next step: lay out the rest of the quilt . . . maybe next week.
