    I made it, start to finish, inc. hand quilting in under 7 months.

    Elle, it's lovely to see yours on the bed all spread out.

    Then I went to your homepage and I sit here with goosebumps and an open mouth. Especially those snowflakes are out of the world! I dont even bother to ask how someting like that can be done.............
    Looking at your avatar I thought its machine embroidery :oops: :oops:

    I'm working on 2 of them right now.
    Don't pay attention to the numbers in my siggie - they're off, I need to re-count and update. The newest figures:
    My Funky Dear Jane (no two fabrics will be the same) - I have 10 triangles, 75 blocks and 1 kite finished.
    My Christmas Dear Jane (using only white on white and Christmas fabrics) I have 5 triangles and 30 blocks complete.

    Both of them will be for me and DH. After I finish them, I'm hoping to make another one for my daughter.

    I started last June but I work full time as a teacher, part time as a translator and 2 hours a day writing. I'm also a mom to a 2 year old. I've been trying to get it done asap.

    LOL, I am 60+ disabled, single, and lucky enough to qualify for a home support lady who comes for 5 hours a week to help me, which enables me to spend more time sitting on my behind sewing, and no, I don't sleep all that much either! Thanks for the nice comments though.

    These are just amazing quilts! I'm not to the point where I am confident to do one yet. I do well with smaller projects at the moment. With work, kids, other activites I just don't want to commit to it right now. I would LOVE to have the time to though. These things are fabulous!!! I'm in awe! I hadn't ever seen one of these. Simply beautiful!!!
