The quilt is 70 by 94 if I am doing the math right. I am not sure of backing or anything yet, I found out that I don't have a lot of black for any kind of border, which I want in there. and I am not sure what other piece will be in there with it.

Thank you kwhite, I am not sure some times when I am looking at it that I won't go blind.

My fingers survived all the pressing, and there was a lot of it. i would do it all again.

I am still not sure what will happen to it when I get it done.

I would use a clover mini-iron, no steam or burnt backs of your fingers {right below your finger nails}when picking up the small pieces.

I jsut recently purchased a small craft iron, though it isn't aclover one, everywhere I went they didn't have any. I haven't done anything tiney since I got it though I am sure that will not be the case for long. I am doing the mystery quilt on Sun and I think there might be a small piece or two in that.

So anyone that was watching this before, It is now on the two fron bars and I am about to put it accross and pin it on the back bar, which means all I will have to do it fire up the machine and away we go, of course there is the little thing of what to put where and what color to do it in. I am thinking black on black, defeats the purpose of the balck if I add color, but then, what to do what to do in the middle, Yeah, I am scratching my head on that one. I have a bit, while working to think about it.

Way better than I could do. Tried them that small with thangles no less & did not like how they looked so I gave up on that size for now. Will have to wait till I am a bit better at things before trying that small again.
