Beautiful :D :D :D

Beautiful, cheerful, and the tiles show that you've mastered squaring up! congratulations on a wonderful quilt!

I counted for you
CENTER:
16 HSTs per block
9 rows of 7 blocks = 63 blocks in center
63 X 16 = 1008 HSTs in center
BORDERS
4 HSTs per block
bottom and top: 17 blocks X 2 = 34 blocks X 4 = 136 HSTs
each side: 18 blocks X 2 = 36 X 4 = 144 HSTs

Total = 1008 + 136 + 144 + 1288 HSTs!!!!!!!!!!!

Joanne...you are a math whiz..right???

That is breathtaking...

I should have said 1288 HST PAIRS!

No - just obsessive-compulsive! I was curious after she said she stopped counting.

Very very nice! I love it.
you must have worked constatly to get all those pieces together.

Jill,
I love your quilt, when we talked about the HST quilt in chat I didn't realize the pattern I was thinking something like a saw tooth, this is fantastic, I love it.
I was considering the broken dish (I think that is what you have around the border right? or is it an hourglass?) for the next border on the round robin quilt I just received. What do you think?
Brenda Henning is an Alaskan quilter, unfortunately I was active in the guild a few years ago when they brought her to my area for a workshop. She has a book out with the Hunter Star that I am determined to do one of these years.

Jill, I love it. That is just stunning.

The quilt is absolutely stunning and you did an incredible job with the colors and placement. What a tremedous amount of work that had to be.

I have to ask about the Triangulations CD. I considered buying it, but was looking for some reviews and didn't find any. Did you find it time saving and as accurate as it is described? Do you think it is worth the price?

My Avatar?

It is just a picture I found on the web and fell in love with. What is cuter than wild animal babies?? Especially when they are this affectionate with each other.

That is a beautiful quilt. You have the patience of a saint. The colors are wonderful. It looks great to snuggle up in.

Whoops, submitted it twice. Guess it's getting late for me.

wow wow wow... very nice

I really like this quilt - fabulous stashbuster! Love the alternate dark-light layout, and the scrappy look of all the blocks. Thanks so much for sharing this!
