Eddie did a tutorial just a while ago on the Cathedral Window pattern - didn't seem to look like it would take a year to do - it's on my list! Please say it won't take me a year!

Not sure how long it will take, guess it depends on how much it's worked on, this is all I got done in two day & nights, very slow going and yes the blocks are small. I'm enjoying doing this but have to put it back on hold as I have many thing's on the to-do list first. Colors are much brighter that they show in picture.

Thank you, it's not perfect, but I'm sure it'll get better as I go along.

Thats funny. I have several "One Year Quilts" and they aren't Cathedral Window! I'm afraid that one would be a "Ten Year Quilt" for me!! They are sure beautiful.
