I am hand-quilting a GFG also, with some help my my guild friends. Mine is huge and I hope to have it quilted by end of February. Have been working on it for 6 months a little at a time. We can encourage each other. Yours is lovely. I did not do the top of the one I am working on. I had an internet friend send it to me because she no longer wanted it. I was truly lucky to receive it.
