    Love this! Nice work. Is there a pattern source you could share, or is this your own design-?

    Gorgeous quilt, well done. What always impresses me is the quilters who keep count and know to the scrap how many pieces they have used in their project. I would be just cutting and cutting and cutting.

    Jane, those are 2" squares if I read her post correctly. Judging by a book I still own, I would indeed guess that this is quilt is indeed done in sections. Kind of like a sideways row quilt. I just love these.

    I just started putting 2" squares together, then laid them out.... it is rows on point.
