Hahaha SOME of your responses are funny!! Yeah - ya CAN do it - I have only seen VERY EXPERIENCED quilters design a whole cloth quilt Iat the Houston Quilt Show) - they used an air gun and created beautiful scenes, and then quilted by hand I believe. Could YOU do that?? huh?? Can ya? I sure as H--- could NOT! I am a 16 year "beginner" my hair is white so I would NEVER finish it before I was "finished"! Good luck tho!------ let us see it IF you decide to do it!---
