    Need to enter it into a quilt show, this must win a blue ribbon. How long did it take you to make this?

    Is this crown of thorns?
    Thanks Gale
    Yes, I left off the squared blocks.

    How long did it take you to make this?
    I started it I think the middle of 2007 It took be about 9 mos working weekends and sometimes an hour or two during the week. The quilting is what took so long. To make this short, I had a lady at the LQS where I purchased the fabric to quilt it. She was one of those I learned that had good intentions but never followed through. Her partner made her sell her part of the store because of this. She took my quilt to her house and was going to quilt it there. I didn't know this for about 3 wks. After 6 mos of it being at her house I went and got it and took it to the LQS in my town (where I purchased the pattern). She had it about a month, because of her backlog.

    That is absolutely amazing! If you are using it as a wall hanging, where did you put the hanging sleeve? Yeah, I know, on the back. What I mean is how far down from the top? Or are you going to use clips?
    Was it a pattern you'd recommend to others? I'd love to give it a try!!!!
    bev. :]

    Wow, that is incredible. The blocks are gorgeous enough, but all that curved binding is beyond belief! What a work of art, you should be soooo proud of yourself.
