Quilting Milestone
I did it! I have been struggling with quilting because it makes me terribly dizzy to work throughout my sewing room triangle – sewing machine to cutting table to ironing board. I have only completed ONE quilt since my MS diagnosis, and I knew I needed to get this next one completed for a cousin’s son. I gave him the quilt top when he graduated from high school last year, but I didn’t have it quilted or the binding put on. I finally received it from my quilter in October, but this MS has been a struggle to deal with ever since. BUT, I decided it was now or never, and I forced myself to complete this (very late) graduation quilt by putting the binding on it yesterday.
“Graduate’s Guitar Hero”
I have one more very late graduation quilt to bind from last year, but I will once again force myself to just get it done – especially since I have six more quilts returning to me this week from my quilter!
As for the dizziness, it lasted most of yesterday and today, but there are just times you have to deal with the side effects of MS and forge forward. I’m SO very glad I did!
What perseverance and courage! It’s a gorgeous quilt and the graduate is lucky!
