I started at 1 PM and finished the top at 8 PM with time out to make and eat dinner.
I'm making a strip quilt out of other scraps, but that is taking longer.
I'm making these for the eastern NY flood victims.
Thank you! I need specifics and this is exactly what I wanted to know...fabric selection, cutting size, the whole thing-I need to be able to see or have enough description to visualize the finished product
Your quilt sounds pretty and I love that you were able to put it together so quickly.
