No, I hand pieced it. I've tried paper piecing once since I finished this quilt and think I'll try it again, it was fun. I have to admit...I'm terrible at it though :oops: I guess practice will make perfect??

Your quilt is breathtaking! Great job! I don't think I would part with it either, unless I was offered a fully loaded Ford Excursion!

I should be so brave to try one like that! :lol: :lol:

WOW! If you ever get tired of it - you could sure send it my way! I love the colors - blue is my favorite and right next to it is green! You did a totally awesome job with this quilt. You have every right to feel very proud - and protective. Think you should start something new for the sil.

Wow!!! What an awesome quilt!!! It would be a hard, hard thing to give that beauty away!! I think you should add re-side the house, clean the gutters, be your hand servant for the next 5 or so years to amma's list PLUS the chocolate before SIL qualifies LOL.
