Your work is wonderful. Very pretty.
Someone asked if the investment of the time it takes to make one is worth it. I believe it is worth it. I am doing a little while on my Cathedral Windows and put the large part of my time on the other quilts that go faster. Then I still have the pleasure of making the Cathedral Windows but do not grow to hate it because it might keep me from working on other quilts.
I have not seen a Cathedral Windows that I did not like.
They are all so beautiful.

It is beautiful; love it!
When you mentioned it when we talked, and you offered me the pattern and I turned it down, it wasn't that I don't like the block. I have a "Stack and Whack" I want to do also this Winter. Of course my Christmas Quilt is just sitting, for now!

I had a lady who saw it, ask me why I would ever do something like this by hand. She said she could do one by machine very quickly. She then said,"Yours will be more valuable than mine and I would put yours under glass." :wink:
It is much prettier by hand. I have done cross stitch that has taken me 2 years to complete. But, you do not do it continuously. You pick it up and do it when you want to. I started making it because I thought it was pretty and I did not know how to quilt. Actually, it is very easy. So I think it is worth it.
