Incredible - I keep looking at those beautiful quilts and still can't believe your husband's unique ability. Give him a big applause.

Whooooaaaaa Nelly!!! Has your DH gone blind yet?? I do believe after sewing 3 or 4 of those 5/8 in blocks together I'd have not only given up but called my Ophthalmologist to fix my now irreparably crossed eyes! Kudo's of the highest order to your talented DH. These are truly magnificent!!
I have an 84 year old friend that makes Barbie doll quilts with 1 inch (unfinished) blocks that she actually paper pieces! Some people are just amazing!!

I tried to send an empty message for "speechless"! I zoomed the images to 200%. Are the sashings in the TATW pieced too, or are they one piece strips? I understand that the "logs" in the LC are also made of pieced squares, right?
I have worked on this small of a scale, but never on such large finished pieces. Simply fantastic.

Ditto, exactly what I was thinking. And if I could, I know I do not have the patience to do anything like these little gems !
