 A Very large quilt.  My new sewing friend Cynde and I each made this quilt.  Took us 9 months.  We did change the design a bit.  We left out the tiny pieces that were in the pattern.  This is a Lori Holt pattern called Calico Garden.  Used Lori Holt fabrics.  She has videos to watch for the construction of each square.  Super fun to make.
