Quick fitting sewing fix! I love the warmth of a turtleneck on cold/cooler days but the traditional turtle neck is too high and I feel like it is choking me in front. So I unpicked the neck stand and unpicked the back "collar" seam . I shortened the height of the of the stand and then turned it around so the seam would be in front. Instead of sewing it back together I just lowered the top edge in center front until the top edges matched at the CF neckline. Then I serged around the neck, cutting off excess fabric that hung below the center front on the inside of the neck line.
Voila! Warmth of a turtle neck in back and a comfortable V neck in front!

FINALLY! I have been working on this for several years with lots of help from my sister-in-law Margaret Mortimer. I was going to do a Texas star or something in stars as this quilt is for one of my daughters who was born on the 4th of July. And in red white and blue of course.This was YEARS ago that I started collecting fabric for this project. Now her bedroom is yellow! So I decided I needed to add yellow to the project. And Margaret said "Look at this new design I found. (She had made a small quilt from it.) Let's do this and get this quilt made!!She lives in Salt Lake City and I live in San Diego! After one of our Conselle Fit Retreats I stayed an extra 2 days and we started the quilt. We cut and sewed nonstop for 9 hours just to get the blocks done. 64 blocks! Then I brought them to San Diego to put together. One day arranging and rearranging! Then one day sewing! Center done! Then next year- Margaret - "Do you have it finished?" Me-"No! Two years later. Margaret-"Bring that quilt up here and let's get it done!!" Me- "OK!" So I drove to Utah rather than fly to carry the quilt. After another Fit Retreat I had 1 extra day I could stay and sew the borders on. So we cut strips and I sewed. 10 hours!! I wanted to get it quilted before I left. Had forgot the batt I had purchased in San Diego so at 8:30 p.m. I finished the borders (had a lot of piecing to do as fabric was scarce and couldn't find more). RUSHED to nearest Joanns, bought new batt and RUSHED TO the quilting lady who said if I could get it to her by 9 pm she could quilt it for me overnight! Success! Quilted in a star pattern for top and 2 pillow shams. Picked it up at 9 the next morning before my drive back home. This quilt is large as I wanted it to be a cover with a nice 15 inch drop for a queen size bed. All I had to do was take in home and put the binding on. 7 months later - Didn't get in done for Christmas as planned because of surgery recovery but I showed it to her and "Joy of Joys" she loved it! So right after Christmas I made the 2 color binding and FINISHED the quilt. Just have to get the shams done! Easy peasy - right???
