Wow, this is beautiful, if you do not like black, how about a very dark blue, like Phthalo Blue or Prussian Blue?

Still looks like a lot of work even if you use your leaders and enders, but that is a really great idea. I also think black will be a good border.

Nice! I too have a postage stamp WIP. I go back to it when I need a break from another WIP. Your technique sounds better than mine though. I sew 10 squares together to make a row and then sew 10 rows together for each "block." I have to do some adjusting on occasion to get the corners to meet properly. I'll get there eventually. :o)

Beautiful! And thanks for the great tip. I started using starters and enders, but recently I got side tracked. Now I'll try to make it a habit! :-D :-D

You have patience!!! I did a small postage stamp in red/white/blue and mumbled the whole time about all the little pieces. Thanks for sharing.
