You know it is big when you...

...have to lift the camera over your head to get a picture of the whole darn quilt!  I think it measures about 86 x 99 or so.  I LOVE it!  I wonder how many pieces are in this darn thing!?!


Unfortunately, this may be the last time I see this quilt for a while.  I think I want to hand quilt it, so I have to wait until the GFG is complete before I can start.  I am hoping my GFG will be done by summer.  Maybe this will be the motivation I need to keep working on it!

Next up?  ANOTHER Bonnie Hunter Quilt!  I just can't get enough of her scrappy interpretations and designs.  I am going to do Orca Bay in purple, black, gray, and white.  We shall see how that turns out.

  2. It's absolutely gorgeous, Natasha! It's already a treasure and if you add hand quilting it will a quilt to hand down for generations.
