Oh that's cheating!! :lol: :lol: My TATW and Many trips were all sewn 1 square at a time!
Now, I wouldn't call that cheating. I would call utilizing my time to get the most out of it with the least amount of frustration. It was one of the easiest quilts that I have done. I have two going the first one only needs the second border for the top to be done and I have all of the "tubes" ready for the 2nd one. These two are all done with patriotic fabric and I want to do another one w/Christmas fabric.
