If I'm counting correctly, this has over 200 pieces.

And you must piece it by hand.
You have one hour to complete the block.
Start...
NOW.
I'll be back to check.

I took a quick look through the EQ library and came across this block - Perspective Grid, with 121(?) pieces. Of course, like the Tree of Life you mentioned in the OP, you could make them HST's and double the count.
Now, me? I would PP sections of it, but you can certainly draft 20+ templates if that's what rocks your boat. ;)
I will continue searching for more torturous blocks. ;)

How can I get out of this one? Please ignore my original post.
I posted accidentally. I typed this while sleeping.
I was being delusional. So there. ;-) ;) ;)
Actually I found quite a few traditional blocks with lots and lots of pieces.
I'll post them later for those interested in my torment. LOL

Ok. I don't have EQ so I can't post the actual blocks.
Edit: Found some on quilterscache.
Aunt Rachel's Star - 152 pcs
http://www.quilterscache.com/A/AuntR...StarBlock.html
Birds in the Air - 164 pcs (this along could be a quilt on its own). LOL
Indian Plumes - 93 pcs
http://www.quilterscache.com/I/IndianPlumesBlock.html
Minnesota - 97 pcs
Windmill II - 96 pcs
Twelve Crowns - 125 pcs.
(very similar to mccalls but with more pcs I think)
http://www.mccallsquilting.com/qb/pa...3_2/index.html
All the above are from Judy Hopkins 501 Rotary-Cut Quilt Blocks.
Anyone game? :twisted:
Don't know if I will attempt all of them but I should make at least one
then maybe I'll be cured for good. LOL
I'm also on a sewing diet (my house is a construction zone again).
As soon as I can get back to sewing and I finish my niece's quilt
I'm going to make one of these blocks. Will post picture then.
