I did one large quilt following her book for directions. It worked fine and the finished product was fine--It does involve quite a bit of hand sewing when you put the pieces together--the backing is hand sewn as the sections are joined. I encourage you to try it.

I just found that the quilting part was not my cup of tea and I tend to send my big quilts out to a LAQ--I am blessed with one who is very reasonable in her prices and has short turnaround time.

I have tried it on a small quilt, just to get the feel of it, I think it's easier. You just have to have a plan of stitching. Not nearly the bulk of the other way. I did a quilt a little bigger than a twin and quilted that the normal way and then I quilted on a twin using the cutting in third way and it was much easier as I don't seem to have a lot of clearance under my sewing arm. I think I'm going to like it a lot! Time will tell.

This is a large queen size that I did in sections. After machine quilting each section I butted up the edges and did a zigzag stitch then sewed the black strips over the zigzaged seams to cover the stitching.

That is a stunning quilt! I really like the colors. Not girly at all! :D

Yes, I FMQ or quilt in sections. I try to separate it into qtrs. Finishing a qtr at a time. Sure works for me. Keeps from wrestling the darn thing all over the table...
