# A few years time maybe ...
... I'm trying to do one a day now. That's my plan. So to get 1400 odd will take me about 4 years or something.

# I've got to do 2400 heads for the quilt

# Heads. Lots of heads.
Embroidered onto different scraps on linen, then the scraps sewn together and backed.

# It is, so I can't start it for a bit.
I've got a lot to do this year- the main one being a quarter of an hour's worth of hand drawn animation *looks a bit frightened*.

I've done it before, but nowhere NEAR on that scale.

# blimey - you got a storyboard and everything already?

# Hmm.
Ish. If by that you mean '...in your head' then yes.

Luckily there's nothing in the way of story as such or dialogue, just lots and lots of water.

# I know.
Stylised water, I hasten to add. That's more for me rather than anything else, adhering to a style will make it so much easier (not to mention quicker).

Nothing particularly lifelike. Fucking hell, I'm such a gung-ho tossbag, I'll never draw again.

it's a type of bedding — a bed covering composed of a quilt top, a layer of batting, and a layer of fabric for backing, generally combined using the technique of quilting. Another technique for securing the quilt layers is tying. Tying refers to the technique of using thread, yarn or ribbon to pass through all three layers of the quilt at regular intervals. These "ties" hold the layers together during use and especially when the quilt is washed. This method is easier and more forgiving if the quilt is made by hand. Tied quilts are called, depending on the regional area, "lap", "comfort" or "comforter", among other names. Many quilts are made with decorative designs; some quilts are not used as bed covering at all, but are rather made to be hung on a wall or otherwise displayed. In British English, quilt is another way of saying duvet, wadding is another way of saying batting, and calico refers to muslin rather than to a fabric with a printed pattern on it, but that's not important right now.
