I have quite a few GFG blocks completed but alas I've had difficulty figuring out how to put them together (the path between the flowers has me perlexed) - so the project has been sitting for a very long time.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06889819189264646562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-11011897633876767082009-04-14T19:02:00.000-03:002009-04-14T19:02:00.000-03:00I am sure they will feel the same about yours, ama...I am sure they will feel the same about yours, amazing, just amazing, I love to hand piece and quilt too!Jane's Fabrics and Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05317443286432117072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-60814340894519027132009-04-14T15:51:00.000-03:002009-04-14T15:51:00.000-03:00Your quilt is beautiful!

You are right - it's hard to maintain interest in this one - I've also given myself 2 years to work on it. When I've taken too long of a break with it I just keep thinking how happy I'll be when it's done.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08231046548406452925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-37454104164594014512009-04-14T14:02:00.000-03:002009-04-14T14:02:00.000-03:00Kaaren, how lucky you were to stumble on such a we...Kaaren, how lucky you were to stumble on such a well-preserved antique quilt - and I'm so glad to see that you use it!

I like your idea of using it as an inbetween portable project. I think I could do that.
