I just finished the first 1/4 of my postage stamp sized (1" finished squares) Trip Around the World. I strip pieced it and it's turning out great. I didn't worry about how I ironed, I just ironed a lot and it's all fine. 40 fabrics, 80 rows in the whole quilt for a total of 6400 pieces in the finished quilt (hopefully sometime this spring!) 1600 pieces in this quarter, which is a Christmas gift.....
