    Beautiful! That pattern just scares me. I may never do it.

    Really lovely. I made one also, totally by hand and it took me ove 8 years. When I first started it my Mom said she thought I bit off more than I could chew. I didn't see it that way. I love sitting in from of the TV and hand sewing. I was going pretty good for about a year or so, then my mom got sick and I took care of her at home, and because I had the visiting nurses coming into the house 5 days a week I decided to put it away. Then Mom passed and I had to get the house cleaned out and put up for sale. So for about 2 years I didn't know anything to it. But last year I finally finished it only to find out it was way too long for the bed. So I cut of the excess, made 2 window curtains with them and also made 2 wall hangings with the rest. I had to put a binding on mine because of cutting it, but everyone loves. I will try to get pictures posted.

    You made a beautiful quilt! I made a small one (ran out of fabric) and my challenge was to do it entirely by machine.

    Very nice! I experimented with these. Love the look but will probably never make a quilt using this technique.
