I agree with the log cabin thing. The quilt I did used tiny narrow strips which showed every tiny deviation from 1/4" seams. For me I started My Cats Garden about 14 years ago. It's very detailed hand appliqué. Out of the nine blocks I've finished 6. I will NEVER make this quilt again. I just hope I live long enough to make it once!
I can't believe I found someone else who has that quilt sitting around. I bought EVERY block and it was very expensive. I did 1 block and it was just more than I could handle with the tiny pieces. I have taken it out maybe once a year since to think about it. My last thought is to just fuse the pieces down with a strong adhesive and at least it would be done. Please post the 6 you have, just maybe it will give me inspiration. HAS IT REALLY BEEN THAT LONG SINCE I BOUGHT IT. Talk about unfinished items.
