The return from the abyss

This is the quilt that took me on a journey to the abyss, from which I almost did not return. I almost gave up quilting because of this quilt.

It's really pretty. I've got a couple patterns with a lot applique in each square but haven't had the courage to try them yet. Good for you.

It is a very creative and wonderful quilt and I am so, so glad you did not give up. I think you probably learned a lot from doing this quilt and you also must have learned that no matter how difficult a project becomes, you can do it...Your quilt is quite wonderful. Congratulations on finishing it.
