Thanks  I used probably 10 yards of fabric and I did it over the span of a couple months, but if I sat down and did just that I would have had it done in maybe a couple of weeks. Smaller strands of lights of course don't take as long to do.

I love this!! Gorgeous!
I have made smaller ones before and know how much time they take! I can't imagine making one 30 feet long! You're one patient gal! =)

Ok I hate to rain on the parade  I hate to say it, what if a blub goes out? Did you use the kind of lets that if one goes out all won't go? I hope so.
I think they are so pretty! I want to do a few.

Well to be honest with you, I did not think of that until I was almost finished *lol* but I figure it wouldn't be the end of the world to go through them all. On all my newest ones I have been using the kind that doesn't shut off all the lights because one doesn't work. Thanks Kimmie!
