Well, made some progress on Saturday - Sunday woke up with a migraine and halted all work - it is now 4:00 a.m. and I am wide awake - no sewing until everyone is out of bed. I will try to post progress later today.

I was always under the impression that you have a year to get a wedding present to the couple, so don't rush it!

Thursday I picked out fabric and today starting the cutting and piecing - just wanted to see if I can do this before the wedding - so I will post my progress as I go along. Here is todays blocks - I have completed 8 of these and have the fabric and strips sewn for another 8 so tomorrow back at it. Wish me luck... :thumbup:

Wow, so with just a week to complete this quilt are sewing from sun up to sun down? Also are you doing the quilting yourself as well? My hat is off to you. I would love to see the finished product. As said before GO GIRL GO!!!

I think this is going to be a stunning looking quilt! It can be a bit stressful trying to get such a large project done in such a short time frame, but I think you'll be able to do it! Just thought you'd like to know we're cheering you on! Let us know how you're doing when you come up for air on occasion!
