WOW was the first word that came to my mind too. There is a lot of WOW factor there!

HOw large are the rows that you sew together? Must be huge, and tons of matching up. Wow, what a beauty that one is!

Yes. This is the same one, just a much better picture (you can see the whole thing now!). I've got my squares all sorted out now. I've already started Perkiomen Dreams. And, yes, I am making it 100x100. I know...there's something wrong with me!! LOL!

The rows are as long as you want (the width) them to be. Matching isn't hard...I only pin every third or fourth one. The best part is, you only press one time --- just before you get ready to add a row to the center (you build this one from the center out and up).
