The blocks were very time consuming over 3 hours to cut and piece two blocks. The sashing between blocks was a nightmare. Then a week before Xmas when I decided to put borders on they took about 5 to 6 hours. I do like the end result, I just don't have time for time consuming as I'm usually working two jobs. But there are a couple blocks in there I would make a whole quilt out of and I would do sashing again now that I figured it out.

Thanks to all you for the wonderful comments. My sister loved it. She truly cherishes anything I make her.

Yes I have a long-arm. But I do know someone who could do that on her sewing machine.

I think it is beautiful. I think we just get tired of working on it and makes us not like it as much. Love the quilting also.
