I’m OK with the quilting itself, I just don’t like to do the layering part. I only do hand quilting which is my therapy; it takes me in to a mental zone and my blood pressure immediately drops. I just finished one I started last June, and now am quilting a smaller wall hanging size.

JoAnn’s sells a water-soluble spray glue that you spray on the layers to arrange them before quilting. It washes out when you’re finished. Haven’t tried it; but it sounds like it would cut the prep handling time considerably. I once used hundreds of safety pins to assemble the layers.
