I use the same technique of sewing strips together -- and I'd be happy doing this 24 hours a day.
    I would have to go to the deck and SCREEM and then get back to work!

    Plainjane,
    Since you did the recent swap, are you starting to save for another? This one is beautiful! I'm saving mine from the swaps and will someday do a big one as well. I think they are so much fun!

    Your quilt is so pretty. It had to be a lot of work. I think I would like to do one sometime, but I don't really know how to get started. - Cynthia
