This is STUNNING! I haven't figured out how to make quilts like this yet but I can't wait to learn. It makes me so happy just to look at it!

Thanks...quiltskeet... this quilt is in the book "Glorious Colour" by Kaffe Fassett...I have just been following the instructions...it really isn't difficult, just time consuming. :)

Holy moly! I've thought (very, very briefly) about making one of these, but I do not have the patience. Yours looks amazing and what a lot of work!

Wow, thank you so much! I can't really tell how long it's actually taken because for about 3 years it hung on the wall in my sewing room much like it looks in this picture without me even touching it, I just got caught up in other aspects of life...I don't really have a lot of time for quilting...anyway about 2 months ago I got back at it and now it's almost done - just have one section across the bottom to join to the rest. I teach high school and will be off for the summer in a few days, so it will be done hopefully next week. :)

This is the most beautiful quilt I've evert seen, I love Kaffe Fassett. I have just got back into patchwork since my mum died and your quilt has just given me so much inspiration to get started again.
thank you so much

Hopefully you will be quicker than me with it - I started it in 2005 and still not finished. I never seem to have time for quilting.

I am loving this quilt. I sew so much and spend too much time on computer. I want badly to get started on some quilts. Right now I am working on 4 wedding gifts which are cotton laminate on one side and decor weight on opposite side and binding. I am using Amy Butler's free pattern on her site. It has a bag to carry picnic blanket in as well. I am adding some napkins as well.
PLUS, I am working on 5 crafty graduation presents that are already 3 weeks late!... That seems to be the way my projects go. Always a little late and no time to sew for me.

I have an awful lot of unfinished projects and fabric because while I have so much I WANT to do, but working full time and chauferring my teenage daughter to all of her activities seems to leave me with little time/energy left over.
