Do you start the quilt in the middle or at the top? I have many 3" sq and I use them up that way.

I start in the middle and work my way up and out, using sets of four squares (in identical fabric).

This is the ultimate test of patience; and it turned out just gorgeous! I was at a flea market last year, and found a TATW that is hand pieced and all hand sewn; took me 3 seconds to get out the $10 she was asking; cannot imagine someone selling that. Crazy.

I'm on my fifth one now, made out of all floral fabrics.
I have done a quilt like this and know it took a lot way to go !!!
