I blame it on my job and having no sewing table (I use the dining table). So how do I live with it?

That always makes a huge difference for me. Chain piecing goes way faster. I don't know why. <br /><br />Either way, they are both loverly. And if you ever decide you have tired of one or the other, I'll give it a good home. :-DGingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07674527009400041533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3358747506035463552.post-55473101004337038212009-05-25T13:04:47.452-07:002009-05-25T13:04:47.452-07:00I'm pokey...

As long as you enjoy the process, it is time well spent and it is clear to see that the beautiful work that you do is a result of those long hours at your sewing mashine. I envy your skill.....
