I was bound and determined that I would learn to do needle turn with just a needle, so thats how I did this quilt. I'm much better at it now than I was when I started, but still can improve....a LOT!
Lots of you ask how many hours. I really have NO idea. I worked on this quilt every evening while watching tv for probably 3 hours or so...for 14 months. Add in the time to quilt (yes, I did quilt it myself on my DSM- which is domestic sewing machine..no long arm). The quilting took probably 90-100 hours. I had to do all the center peach blocks twice since they are trapunto. So...you tell me....I'm afraid to add it up! LOL!
Thanks for all the lovely comments.
