All are gorgeous and I salute you for the time and patience it took to hand piece the 1st two. I think the machine pieced block looks just as good and so much faster. At 65 I don't think I would get even 1 quilt done if I hand pieced, which I've never done. I love machine sewn and quilted quilted, so much faster, I'm averaging 2 per month. I have lots of fabric I want to use up. I give most of my quilts away and everyone wants to wash them so often, I think it would be a waste of time to give away, hand pieced and quilted quilts.
