So, there was a fair bit of unpicking and re-sewing going back in some places about 10″ long a line to find a suitable starting point or get to the end of a thread, to bring all the quilting lines right out to the selvedge of the fabric – the strip of batting showing on the right side of this photo is about 1″, and the gold fabric that needed to be filled after all was about 2″ wide, and approx. 72″” long, a little more maybe. Quite fiddly – but now I am back on track and the result will be worth it.
