Wow -- just wow!

I am so impressed with your finished project --plus the using of scraps. And the knowledge you gained/lessons you learned in so many areas. Maybe you need to learn a little bit more about how your quilt fits among the spectacular ones!

I don't think you mentioned your time line, it would have taken me months just to come up with a concept much less produce a work of art.

Hmmm... timeline for the challenge quilt? I think the challenge was introduced at the end of January? My original idea was a jungle scene complete with a multilevel river with several waterfalls. Many things changed during this process! I certainly didn't work on it steadily - I have a photo of my first unsewn landscape layout in mid-February so I'll say about 2.5-3 months. :-)

Gemma, unbelievable work, absolutely stunning. Great use of stash. I can't figure out how you cut the birds in/by the pond, how did you ever cut their beaks. Wow, very intriqet work.
