Just finished last night. This was pieced by machine, but quilted by hand. I wanted to make a quilt with only HSTs and came up with this arrangement. There are over 40 hours of hand quilting alone. I'm starting to think I'm a little crazy to invest so much time, but I guess it keeps me out of trouble.

There's an old treadle under there.

Beautiful quilt! Beautiful handwork!

I only think you're crazy because you made a quilt of all HST's!
