"challenge" was the operant word for it, too. there were 677 pieces in that quilt. I don't think I'll be attempting it again.

I could use some suggestions about how to quilt it. I need some "distance" from it for a bit. There were a lot of frustrations putting that together...

If anyone wants the design, I am more than happy to send you the EQ7 file, but I will not be writing this up. Ever. :lol:

I also suggest that all the triangular blocks are paper pieced, if you are going to attempt this... Oh, and give yourself more than a week.
