I have one started that I only work on in the evenings, in the winter. It started out to be a full sized, I'm about 2/3 finished, and it is getting real heavy. I started out with a bolt of cream and used scraps for the color, and I will end up with some left over, but not a lot.
It is lovely, but I don't know if I would do it again, this will be my third, and final (I hope) winter.
