I have given this amount of time for the boom some more serious thinking and I like it staying at 4 months. I know that there are some who are anxious to get their blocks back and the quilt all made but I was thinking that knowing that it is a 4 month turn around............that it gives me plenty of time to plan when I will finish in the future. I know really have any family members asking for a quilt to be made real quick or special events coming up suddenly that I don't have at least 6 months or more to think about. I am slow at putting the quilts together as I do the quilting myself because I can't afford to pay a long arm person to do it. Also the cost of postage going up...having less turn around...means 4 booms instead of 3 and the cost goes up. I can also relate to those who work and have other duties to fulfill. So I hope that it stays at 4 months.
