    Yes! I had no idea when I made the first one for a sample in the LQS that I worked at that 2 of my kids and 1 of my granddaughters would decide that is the quilt that they wanted. It is definitely the most time consuming quilt I have ever made. Sewing the strip sets and ironing each seam seems to take forever. After that is done though, it goes together pretty quickly. I will be very happy when this 4th one is complete.

    That is a beautiful quilt! Thank you for sharing! For those who might be interested, I was able to purchase a used copy of Maaike Bakker's book from Amazon for a reasonable price several months ago. If you would like a copy of the book, it's worth checking Amazon to see if it's available.

    Published in 2005 it sells from $66,68 at Amazon now. Yesterday I ordered it from Maaike herself in the Netherlands for 10 euros ($13) and it has already shipped. This was an easy one as DD who lives there is flying home home for Xmas in a week.
    Thank you Julie !
