You both must have a lot of patience if you do needle turn. I think I would enjoy it too but I don't think I would get a long with the time it takes. :roll:

My first thought was needle turn also - a block a month, no problem, right? BUT then I started considering the border, it might never get finished if I tried it by needle turn. So I'm going to try a technique new to me - invisible machine applique. I hope I can do it justice, it'll be a learning experience I'm sure. I'm going to try a couple simpler sample blocks and see if I can get decent at it. If not, I'll have to decide on a different method. If I had the time I would do this needle turn, though, as I love that process.
