It has been a while since I have posted an update on the progress of my Wagon Wheel Quilt. Today I am very happy to be able to say that all the units have been sewn together to form one complete quilt top. It has been quite the task and one that I have thoroughly enjoyed. My time for English Paper Piecing (EPP) is in the evening and as such this quilt top represents many evenings of quiet whip-stitching into the wee hours where sleep was foregone.
The papers were removed as progress was made. This made working on the bigger sections of the quilt top much easier. The only remaining papers are in the very edge of the quilt top as I have yet to decide how to treat the edges so as to end with a straight quilt edges.

It has taken six months for this quilt to get to this point and next time you'll see this quilt it will be quilted, bound, and labelled. I am giving myself at least another three months to get this done ... although I am itching to start another EPP project!
