Wow! I've always wanted to try a portrait quilt. Was this as hard as it looks?

That is gorgeous. What a wonderful heirloom. You did a fantastic job. If only I could oil paint that well, I would be in heaven.

Incredible! I've always marveled at how quilters can make a fabric portrait - you did a wonderful job!

That is so special. Did it take a very long time? Do they tell you how to 'shade' areas and what should be patches or appliques?

Does one need to be artistic with oils in order to create something like this? It's truly a work of art!!
