You know, because I hand quilt, and work full time, it takes me forever to complete a quilt. So far, I have been piecing a top and quilting one at the same time, but have never pieced more than the one ahead. This got me to thinking that maybe I should just go ahead and piece tops, and if I don't live long enough to complete the quilts, maybe my granddaughters would we happy to have them one day to finish.

Beautiful. You can see the love that went into it and you've complemented it well.
