Yep it is busy to the eye, its a 1790's vintage pattern you can find more info about it here
http://estheraliu.blogspot.com/2013/...-marriage.html I can't help but love it and hope to someday make it, yeah right. For me it's not about the look as much as it is the talent and determination it takes to make such a quilt. Quilts in a day or week are nice, but what about that masterpiece and working outside the comfort zone? Gals we as quilters have become lazy with our rotary cutters and fusible webbing. I say I'd like to make it but you don't see me running to the stash with pattern in hand!....LOL! Heck I'm still working My Tweets Block of the month, it was supposed to take one year to finish, I'm in my second year.
