Postagestamps
I'm hoping to finish one UFO per month this year and this one was finished in January. It has been too cold and rainy-grey for me to get a photo until today. The little fabric squares were mailed to me from all over the world. I have collected them for years and years. And pieced them together for more years and years. I'm not sure it was worth it, though it's warm enough--I know because I've been wrapped in it since it came out of the dryer a couple of weeks ago. This has been the perfect winter for testing it. It is made of 1560 teeny tiny one-inch squares and measures 75 x 55.

A rainbow masterpiece!
ReplyDeleteI was startled to read, "I'm not sure it was worth it." I think your quilt looks amazing and knowing that the squares came from all over the world just adds to the beauty. Of course, I didn't have to spend years collecting the fabric and sewing all those tiny pieces together. I hope you enjoy your beautiful quilt for many years to come.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is WOW.
ReplyDeleteI really hunted to find your blog. Saw this quilt started in the postage stamp group. It turned out fabulous. Great job on getting in finished
