I completed sewing on the labels today, so minus a few patches in route via the USPS, my 8 year project is complete!
My quilts will have their first public showing at the San Diego Quilt Show from 5-7 September 2013 in a special section.
I updated my website this past weekend with hundreds of photos of the quilts being put together. I still have to create a book and add 870 pages for each of the patches so that I can have a small write up of what each of the patches stand for. Otherwise, it is a mystery quilt with a bunch of colorful insignia on them--without meaning.

The labels are slightly different since each of the quilts has different groupings of patches on them. Thanks for checking out this thread of my last few months of my 8-year project.
Please check out my website dedicated to this project. How many quilts have their own website? =)
