My sil gave me one that her sister gave her it is a sort of a postage stamp.It has a total of 1754 little squares I think it is a queen I have not yet quilted it.Who ever did it they did it by hand also.The pieces are about 1 1/2 in squares.I thought postage stamps are smaller but any way to give a precious top away that some one worked very hard at.People just don't don't appreciate the art of quilts or quilting like they used to.Their loss is my gratefull gain.
