I only had to redo one block because instead of 1/4" seam allowance, I apparently used almost 1/2"! I also had to put cheater strips around each block so that I could make them all the same size, before putting the sashing on.
I went to my friend's house to use her longarm & really worked on my quilting techniques. I got really good at doing feathers!
I still have many UFOs to finish, but I just can't resist starting new stuff!
Piece out!

What a great job you did....I love the look of the strips around the blocks ...nice work...
Thats a great achievement - 8 years is a little while (though I have a quilt I started in 1990 stil as a UFO!). Like you I LOVE new projects and dont finish all of them when I should.
8 years, but totally worth it! It's gorgeous.
It looks lovely and it gives me confidence that I will eventually finish my first quilt that I have blocks for from 4 years ago! Just have to get the inspiration to do it.
Cheers,
