Yeah let’s just put it out there. I’ve always made pieced quilts, often with way too many pieces and small ones at that.
I made a quilt of this block for a friend’s wedding, years ago. Still love the block despite its many many pieces. For the record, when I made it, there were no speed techniques, no thangles, and not a lot of fabric options. That’s how much I love it.
