I think I have all 500+ pieces traced and prepped on wonder under. Now I get to play with colors which is always fun. For those who asked I started with a 5 by 7 inch photo, covered it with a piece of plastic and traced the image. Then I enlarged the image on the plastic and made sure all the lines were "closed" before enlarged to the size I wanted...big.

Holy- Moly! That is going to be incredible. I can’t wait to see it as the quilt.
How large is it now?

QuiltnNan 04-26-2019 03:32 PM

that's a huge, complicated project!

​It looks like a paint by number only with fabric, cool!

That looks so awesome! It looks similar to a method I saw on Sewing with Nancy.

I couldn't have said it better. I am amazed at your creativity.

Wow, it will be great. You must be very patient. Too much for me.

Oh, my, I love turtles! Can't wait to see it finished.

Wow, that takes patience. Don't think I could do that. Can't wait to see the finished piece.

Wow! You have a challenge ahead of you. But, that project is beautiful. I join the group who will be waiting for the next presentation of the work.

What a lot of detailed work. I admire your ethic. I can't wait to see how it turns out for you.:o

Jingle 04-27-2019 03:08 PM

Will be beautiful. I don't have enough patience for that.

BSKTLOFR-QUILTER 04-27-2019 04:09 PM

Mind boggling

mike'sgirl 04-27-2019 05:04 PM

Oh my goodness! Beautiful!

EmiliasNana 04-28-2019 06:19 AM

This blows me away. Once you finish, you should publish your pattern. I love turtles but I wouldn't have the patience to do all you just did, let alone pick out the fabrics and then make it. Can't wait to see it finished, so please post. I took the easy route and made Toni Whitney's Sea Turtles here: https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...b-t303350.html

Jules51 04-28-2019 01:03 PM

Wow, that will be a beauty! Commend you on your patience in doing something like this--Me, not so much! Looking forward to seeing the finished masterpiece.

sJens 04-28-2019 04:39 PM

this is going to be an awesome quilt.

quiltingshorttimer 04-28-2019 08:55 PM

!!!! can't wait to see the finished portrait--wow!
