Hi Dotty, No you are not slow, some blocks took me simply ages. there are some blocks which are very complex in this quilt. Just keep plodding Like I did, you will get faster even on the complex ones believe me.

Having said all that, I have not made any blocks for 2 days. Yikes lol

Nope some take forever for me too and I am making 2 of each!! :shock: :shock: LOL And I haven't even gotten to the harder ones yet! :) That's why this project is so rewarding I think, because it's not one you can just throw together in a day, it's truly a labor of love. I figure if my quilting time was worth $30/hour, this quilt would cost well over $15,000!! :shock: :shock: It will be a family heirloom for sure.

Cheers!

Elef...what a great shot of the quilt...I see it in your avatar. Its a beauty!! I agree...Dotty...some of these take me a Loooong time, some I can breeze through..but most take me some time to do.

Elle...thanks for the list. I hope some more either pick it back up or just keep plugging. It really doesn't matter what the schedule it. I just think it is such a great quilt....well worth the time to do it!

:D

Yes I so agree Patti, I am taking mine to class tomorrow to take off all the papers. I mean why should I mess up my home with papers LOL when I can do it in class.

I am feeling naughty so there.

Oh...thats a great idea Elle! Gosh...it just occured to me that since I'm really tired and don't think I should sew tonight, I should start to take off some paper..
