I hear you on the too many pieces especially when your making something that isnt your color/style. Its a pretty quilt however and surely will be loved. I once started a bear paw quilt. Made about 5 squares and realized 60 plus pieces per square were NOT my idea of fun at all. Same with the compus patterns.. I did one. Never again. You will whip it out from all your posts on projects you have done your a wiz at this. (tell yourself this at least ten times a day until its done).
