Kathy hand pieced and is hand quilting this quilt...It is made up of 9, 20" blocks. The finish size is 68 with the border..While hand piecing she would take it to work to work on during breaks and lunch.. she was asked how long it took to piece a block...She had no idea, so she wrote down from start to finish...it took 40 hours to piece each block...That doesn't include the marking and cutting out all the pieces...in her words "needless to say, it is a labor of love... I forgot to ask her how long she has been working on this beauty...maybe she will comment and tell us...How about it Kathy???The Ol' Blogger

Gosh, it's been a while...something I pick up when not working on something else...I'd guess I'll have a good 10 years in the making by the time it's finished...
