    I completed this quilt about 4 years ago, and had it LA quilted and gave it to my very quirky and lovable nephew. It was my first attempt at curved piecing, and I was really pleased how well it came out.

    Very nice! I haven't tried any curved piecing yet but I'm thinking it's just about time to try. I'm liking the Drunkards Path more and more with each one I see :)

    It is shown on our queen size bed just after finishing the piecing, and it measures 92 X 108. I really enjoyed making this-I had no problems with the instructions, and it just went together with ease. Buy the way, It was a pattern from Leisure Art's "Encyclopedia of Classis Quilt Patterns", which I have made several quilts from. I still have at least 10 more marked that I really want to make!!
