Yeah, but I have the distinct impression that this won't be the case.
As I could muster the courage to jump into quilting Black Widow I - even though I wasn't using the thread I initially wanted to use - I have stopped and started work on it several times. I simply can't get excited with the results each time a section is completed.
I figure walking away for a day or two, then sitting down and looking at it anew will rekindle the joy of it all (or, at least in part), but it's not happening. So here I am, at a crossroads; teetering heavily towards picking out the many feet already stitched and abandoning altogether the single flat black "metallic" thread I've been using.
Perhaps, as a finale....a specular highlight (so to speak), I will overstitch with it after everything else is done. We'll see. For now, I am thinking of returning to more conventional quilting thread for the bulk of the work.
Yes, removing those already sewn areas will be a pain in the needle, but in the log run I believe I will be happier. Ultimately. Hopefully.
Where's my seam ripper? Time to get started.
