Superb and stunning. Please tell us all about it. Is it a kit, your own fabric and using a fussy cut technique? I just finished a fussy cut hexie quilt. It is much simpler than yours but great fun to do. I really appreciate what you are doing.
peace

Love love love your fabrics and creative fussy-cuts!
How long do you think it will take you to finish?

I am trying to use stash in colors that remind me of a Mallard or pheasant, Audubon colors, I guess. The pattern is in the book Millefiori Quilts by Hammerstein which I bought from Paper Pieces along with the starter pack of papers which I think will last because I remove them as I go. The picture is about 2 1/2 weeks of work so I am guessing about 14 weeks for the whole shebang. Most of the people making this if you google used really bright colors but I am trying to be more restrained

My daughter is working on one of those. You two have more "intestinal fortitude" than I do!

Let your daughter know that there is a Facebook group dedicated to a group of people making this, if that may be of interest to hr. Fun to see different ideas!

Beautiful - love EPP but I only have hexagons. I want to do blocks like yours but I just don't seem to have enough money after the bills to place an order with Paper Pieces. But one of these months I will gather enough to get the diamonds, elongated hexie and other paper pieces.
