Here's a picture of the first TATW I made w/ 1 1/2" squares. It's name is 'What Was I Thinking?' I was taking pictures of it yesterday because I'm entering it into our local guild's quilt show in a few weeks. The size is 81x81. That's 6,561 pieces! It's a fun one to make. I'm on my fifth one now, made out of all floral fabrics.

What Was I Thinking?
