To be honest, skill and patience are really not required to make one of these. Time, yes.
It's a great pick up-put down project that can (should) be ongoing for at least a year, multiple years is better. But you plan it that way – so you don't hurt yourself by working on it constantly.
And open your mind a bit – they don't have to be bed-size. Back of the couch, table runner, bed drape, etc.
They are great fun and very relaxing. Great to do with scraps and in-between other projects. Great to do "bee-style" with other people.

How did you hang it? It is so unusual, it does look like a dress. I do love the effect and I like the way it shows off the quilt but doesn't take up an entire wall. I have a small block quilt but not the wall space to hang it.

Love your perspective, I will have to give it a try. As you say one section at a time. Who knows how far it will go.
