Nelson says, "Hi!" |
There are so many pieces involved. One-hundred eighty-two blocks. Twelve pieces per block. For a grand total of 2,184 pieces. I started piecing it as my leader/ender project in July, 2013. I believe it's final measurements are 102" x 108". I seem to see it with a lightweight denim backing because it screams, "old-fashioned" quilt to me, which of course means it needs to go on picnics at the park. I see a lot of sunny, fun family days in it's future!
Linking up with Crazy Mom Quilts and Quilt Story and Jo's Country Junction and My Quilt Infatuation. Also with Val's Quilting Studio for Tuesday Archives.
