Yes, without a doubt, my DH is a keeper ;-).

I've always wanted to do one too. Imagine cutting one pyramid each from a thousand fabrics though! Yikes!

I love the quilt you're working on and your workmanship. I am honestly considering doing a PP NY Beauty quilt still, probably with older fabrics and things I won't use for anything else. I have to remember that I have a trash can full of tiny trimmings from other quilts. Quilts always have some waste.
