Many of the blocks are hand pieced or applique....so they travel well, like to the dr office waiting room and such. its a fun quilt if you are not in a hurry to "get er done", but enjoy the process. Like you say, it will be a filler quilt to work on amongst the others you do. If it is the only quilt you do, it will seem painfully laboreous, with slow results. I loved making mine, did not mean to discourage you as I babbled on.....
