I kind of go back and forth on how much piecing I want to do. It just depends......But I am itching for another intricately pieced quilts (like the ones in the Bella Bella book or a Judy Niemeyer pattern)..... Just have to find the one that is calling my name!

I really like this one so far. I can understand the time consuming. The last time I did pp'ing I never finished it due to the time it took. I cannot wait till you post your finished product, it is going to be beautiful!!

I appreciate the process so I don't mind when it takes a while.

Love it, it is going to be beautiful!!

I cut one out Sat, started piecing it Sat night, pressed it Sun, put the 9 patchs together after work and after class sewed it all together. Quick and easy, not very large; like a large baby quilt or small lap quilt. Border is not on, it is hanging in the Crafters Studio I work in as a sample for a learn to quilt class I will be teaching. Rail fence, and 9 patch blocks, jelly roll and accuquilt cutter in the studio.

just so you are aware, scraps do multiply. the more you try to use them up, the more there are. i do speak from experience. be aware.
