This is for a very dear Japanese friend of mine. The individual blocks are 8 inch, and paper pieced. I did this as a quilt as you go. I've been working on it since March of this year. I didn't think I'd ever finish it.

I can't believe I'm done

Beautiful! Where on earth did you find so many different paper pieced oriental patterns? It is just lovely!

Did I count 120 blocks in that quilt! That's quite a project. It's gorgeous. You should be proud of yourself. Working on it since March? It would have taken me MUCH longer. :)

It turned out absolutely beautiful!!! You have been working on that a long time. Is it a King size? I recognize some of those fabrics!!!

This is just spectacular! I love it, and your friend will too. I find the Oriental patterned fabric to be irresistible, and I have quite a stash of them. This is giving me ideas!
