Cutting out all the pieces always takes some time, but it can be done while watching TV. Actually layering the applique went very quickly - only a few hours I think - and quilting it was also pretty quick on my longarm. If I were to do it all in one motion, beginning to end without stopping, I think it could easily be done in two days. I'm really surprised at how easy these things are to make.

    Saw this quote after my question. I should have read through the whole thread but I was excited to see something I had been looking at.

    Yours is beautiful! So it's applique? I would have to use my home machine to quilt it, and would like to make it into a larger quilt.

    Any thoughts?
