I had a quilt like that and I put it away for five years, I finally got it out and made my self spend 1 hr a day until it was done. that didn't always happen but I am happy to say I just delivered that#!@%&$# quilt to the longarmer this morning. So all I have left to do it the binding. It has been 10 years in the making. It was part pieced and part machine applique.
