I've been thinkint QAYG, though I need some practice on it first before I commit to that. With all the work that this is, can I learn the technique well enough to do my piecing work justice? Or I might be opt to send it off to LAQ? or handquilter? Long time before I need to make these decisions!

With the practice I've been doing in the last couple of years I'm ready to do the FWS. Not that my quilting is perfect by any means.
If you start quilting now, you'll have a year of practice under your belt before you have to quilt.

Weezie, Thank you for the lovely comment on my purple quilt. I really enjoyed doing this. From my other quilts it seems like I pick a variety of fabric in the same color family. I made 4 Dresden plate quilts. 2 green fabrics, 1 blue fabrics and 1 mauve & pink fafrics for my 4 children for Christmas last year. They were all queen size.
JeanieG, Your red and green quilt is so beautiful. I really like it.
