    Some quilts are like child-birth...very uncomfortable, but the memory of the unpleasant parts fade with time and you're left with only great thoughts about the result. Beautiful quilt!

    I know what you mean!!! I have a DWR on my king sized Gracie frame and it has taken so very long to get it quilted. Of course, I have made many quilts and/or projects that took time from the quilting of this DWR. This quilt is larger than a king sized, I had to take the "overhangs" off and quilt them in my lap. What is on the frame fits the top of the bed. This one is for #2 DD as she saw the one I had made #3 DD. Like you, once I finish this one, there will not be any more. There is a picture on this board somewhere of my quilt in progress, pastel colors w/my helper at the end inspecting my work..lol Mary
