I love the Cathedral Window Quilt in your Avatar. I really want to make one for one reason because I love hand work and another because they are o colorful and pretty. I think the center in bright batic would be very pretty. Your is very beautiful, I wish I could see a bigger picture.

It definately does make a difference on how fast that you can whip out a quilt. I have a couple D9P cut to make. There's no rule that says you cant make your own quilt kits. And its alot cheaper too!!!

As great as the idea sounds, I always end up with sortof wrinkled pieces. Having to then iron them all - well, went there a couple of times and won't again. If you have a pizza box to keep them flat, great, but I never found that the 2 gallon ziploc was adequate.

Just an observation, it is easier on your body to switch jobs every so often. I would get really tired of that much cutting if it was me, but that is just me!
