    I'm not sure how to answer your question; this piece is all FMQ'd. I worked from a photo of Ben, drew some guidelines on the fabric, and after a lot of drawing on paper to decide what to do where, I quilted the designs with poly thread.

    Probably about 20 hours of actual quilting time and that much more of drawing and planning.
