You are probably wondering why it takes so longer for me to finish these FOTY quilts. I don&#8217;t quilt quilts of this size myself and my quilter was going through some personal struggles, so she wasn&#8217;t as fast as she normally is. She is back on the saddle, so if I piece FOTY 2013, she can probably get it done in a few months. I need to do my part.<\/p>\n<p>I am thrilled that it is done, because, hey DONE is DONE-Finished-Finito-complete! It means one less UFO\/WIP.
