Most of my slow stitching this winter has occurred on Thursdays rather than Sundays. That's because I go with my Florida quilting friend Charlaine to the Nobleton Group who meet a few miles south of here. I finished the Grandmother's Flower Garden with them, and now I am attempting to finish lake Effect.
Yes, I will have you take a quick look at a familiar old friend - Lake Effect. Gosh, it feels like an anvil around my neck trying to get this thing finished. It's getting heavier and heavier (figuratively speaking). But, I said from the very beginning that it would be a 10-year-project. This is year 9; the end is in sight.

You'll find dozens of prior posts that will show more complete pictures of this quilt coming together. I will direct you to this one, my last post (all the way back to June '25!) about this quilt, and this post which details the major mistake I made (discovering after 2 years into construction). Do a search if you desire more info.
It is my fervent hope that I will finish this quilt top this year. Gotta' keep my focus on that completion!
I am linking up (after several weeks away) with Kathy and her Slow Sunday Stitching party. I always see such gorgeous projects taking shape over there. These needle artists are such an inspiration.
Happy Quilting, Friends!
