Very pretty, your fabric is beautiful and perfect for your pattern.

katesnanna 01-06-2015 04:47 AM

Wow! Were you lashed to your machine? How many hours were you sewing? I'd really be interested to know. Just know my back wouldn't let me sit at the machine for so long.

AGEING SUCKS

Very stunning. Good luck with your move.

buddy'smom 01-06-2015 07:25 AM

Well the cutting took the longest, after that went pretty fast. Never made the flying geese the way that they do, and so after that I made all big stars first and than the little ones. I didn't mark all the 1 1/2" squares I just zipped right through them and they turned out perfect. I'd say about 10 hours for the complete quilt. Ane my back & side paid for it all night, but so worth it. Thank you.
