Nearly 10000 pieces

I called this Stained Glass Stamina - it took me nearly 2 years to complete. One block in the lower left corner has 192 pieces in a 12 1/2" block.

Beautiful, in every way, and it does look like stained glass. Would love to see close-ups. The colors are wonderful too.

Gorgeous! Is it bias tape or reverse appliqué?

KwiltyKahy 07-18-2014 06:27 AM

I am overwhelmed by the amount of pieces. And then, I looked at the quilt and found it absolutely breathtaking. Yes, it does look like stained glass. Wonderful job.

I too want to see more pictures and tell us about the technique. Was this from a pattern or a self creation? Absolutely beautiful!

It is lovely. I admire your dedication. If I tried that pattern, I'd call it Fast Track to the Funny Farm. No way would I get that done.

Crqltr 07-18-2014 07:45 AM

It is all paper pieced. Can't remember the name of the book - wish I could take credit for a self creation but alas I can not.

It is the lower left corner - looks like a twisting star.

I kept track of the number of pieces with each block I completed, think it came to 9952 or thereabouts

It is in the lower left corner - looks like a twisting star - the one with all the small pieces.

Phenomenal! With nearly 10000 pieces, I can see why it took you two years, but believe me, it is worth every minute.

QUILTNMO 07-18-2014 09:45 AM

Wow! That is one beautiful quilt. Tons of work too. You should be so very proud. Love, love this quilt.

PenniF 07-19-2014 12:06 PM

Totally amazing....this one belongs in a museum.

joyful1 07-19-2014 04:13 PM

WOW, WOW, WOW! Beautiful

cathyvv 07-19-2014 04:56 PM

It's beautiful! You are an artist!

Now, for my second thought: 192 pieces in one 12.5 inch block?!! I don't like to have that many pieces in 1 entire quilt!

Geri B 07-20-2014 03:17 AM

I'm sorry but the pic I see looks like painted flowers, leaves scattered about.......or are these appliqued with batiks.....even when I clicked twice as recommended the close up was not.........lower left has one flower in it...am I seeing the right pic?

citruscountyquilter 07-20-2014 03:38 AM

Wowie Zowie!! What a quilt. Stunning! Congratulations

twinkie 07-20-2014 04:31 AM
