That is outstanding! Beautiful work!
Mine... I took a class from Brenda Papadakis when she was in Wisconsin. We worked on about 5 blocks... I have almost the first row done!!!! and... it's been years. I still want to finish mine, and photos like yours really inspire me. Thank you so much for sharing!!

What a work of art. You are among a selct group of people who attempt and finish this quilt. I know I will never be one. I will be lucky to finish my GFG in next 10 years. Your quilt is simply beautiful. I admire you for keeping at it until it was done.

Gosh, I'm overwhelmed at the wonderful responses you guys!!!!! It was so nice to finish it and I do stare at it alot. Hard to believe I could even do it and I learned so many new (for me) techniges along the way. It's both machine and hand sewn to answer one question. I tried to match Jane's fabrics as close as possible for another question. I did count blocks, tris, plain tris, kites,scallop borders and binding Lace. I forgot to count sashings, OMG!! I'll have to do that. Thanks Lace, I thought it was off quite a bit. I didn't do separate scallop pieces like you. Ok It's 5141 total pieces. I did long sashes from side to side since I didn't use the small squares. So that cuts my pieces down too.
