The quilt is so very cute. I think you set a worlds record for completion of a top! :-)

I love your fabric choices.

Those quilts are really fun to do and they do work up fast.
I request 6 kits at a time from QFK's and get all six tops done in 4 hours. 6 goes so much faster than working on one at a time and before you know it...they're done.

While working on those I can think about my next quilt or come up with solutions to a work in progress that might poise a problem.

Love your work.

It is adorable! Love the fabrics! Would really make a quick last minute ( or hour ) baby quilt! Thanks for sharing

OK, you have inspired me - I have down loaded the pattern, and set the timer! I have 3 tops ready to quilt, all big, so I am waiting for my GF to organise another sewing day. This I can do on my machine.
Will let you know how I go!

Love your work.
But you also have to remember that the QFK quilts are pretty much prepared for you. I got one from them and then made 2 of my own, will do the same next time. But I will do as you and make several at once. This does save time.

I was thinking the same thing. I was amazed at the speed you accomplished this quilt. Sometimes I don't start because I think it will take too much time. I should just start. I think the saying is, to just DO IT.

Thanks for giving us the time involved.

It is really really cute though. I love the owls! Now you have to show it to us quilted. Wait...if you tell me you quilt them yourself too...
