Can you show pictures of how you did this? It is stunning!

Oh my gosh! I can't imagine the time and persistence you had in doing it! Some challenges are meant to be conquered! Great job!

Cathedrals are lots of work! After we did our king size we said never again but I wound up doing my avatar. Both were by hand. You did a super job on yours!

Oh my, it sure is pretty. I like to hand sew in idle moments also. But definitely doubt I would take on a project of this magnitude. (Not if I ever want to use my hands again. lol) The arthritis in my hands would definitely not allow. But, your creation is so pretty.

Your quilt is beautiful and I know tons of work. I made one for my daughter and her DH for their 25th wedding anniversary but it took me 3 years. I'm with you, I probably won't ever do another one. But you did it!! Yeah!!
