    This is very beautiful. I started one a few years ago and it was so hard for me I just gave up on it. One of these days I will pull it out and try again after I watch some tutes. Thank you for posting.

    Lovely quilt. Gosh you 've made two and DH want you to make another one! If it were me I would teach him to sew and let him make the next one. I've only made one and don't plan to make another one, at least not for ten - twenty years from now, I'm 70 and by then, I'll be gone and someone else can make it. At least we both prefer stitching by machine, I'm with you the only hand stitching is the biding and I hate doing that. But when I've tried machine stitching for a binding it does not satisfy me, so I keep drudging along with the hand stitching. I didn't read you post about his cooking, I'm with you I wouldn't want him to stop his cooking I hate to cook, but I would postpone the next quilt for a long time down the road and tell him you want to try out new patterns.

    absolutely beautiful... your colors are very pretty and I like that it hangs well over the side of the bed. Great job!

    Thank you for all the nice comments on my DWR. I am already thinking of the next one, but will finish quilting this one first. Plan on doing the next one as a Leaders/Enders project. I must say, this one wasn't nearly as difficult to make as the first one I did. Ebony Love just kept saying that making this quilt was not a race and to slow down your machine. I kept hearing the little voice in my head and that really helped. Gerbie, I don't mind doing the hand stitching on the bindings as I do it when I watch TV or use it as a project when we travel. There will be a few more quilt patterns to do before my next DWR, but I am already thinking of it.

    Beautiful quilt - I will have to consider getting the AccuQuilt die for this. Thanks for the information on the youtube video.
