Hi, Mary. It sounds like you're still working on your blocks and that's just fine. You haven't been working on them nearly as long as I have. And I took a 2 year break, too. I have decided that this is a lifetime quilt. If it gets done this year or next year, it's still okay. Of course at my age I have to think about who would finish this thing if something happened to me. But, I want to enjoy the process. I don't like pain so if I ever get that I'll slow down or stop.
Do post some pictures of your blocks. They are lovely and deserve some cheers to you. This quilt is not an easy one. Every block deserves some praise.
