    Beautiful quilt, and how lucky can you get to run into a generous LA Quilter. I just priced those suckers, of course I want the all the gadgets, found out it is way out of my league.

    Wow! That is awesome! I really love the pattern and your color choices. I just finished my first king size quilt.
    I chose to piece both sides of the quilt - something I didn't know you could do when I started quilting just over a year ago. The dimensions of the finished quilt are 110"x116". The quilt has approximately 3689 rail pieces plus a 3 piece border and binding. It took me just about 8 months to finish. During that time, I also completed 3 crib quilts, 4 lap quilts, 1 twin quilt, 3 hot pads, and 1 purse. I have a short attention span so I tend to do 2 to 4 projects at once; switching off from one to another as I get board.

    I am already working on 3 new ones but nothing as awesome as yours. You go Girl!

    Wow! Very Good work. I have never tried a Bargello, but I will someday. It's on my list. Something else gets in its way all of the time. Too many quilts, too little time. :)
