It's beautiful! And you did a wonderful job.
Just looking at the design, it looks like a Pam Bono. I bought one of her books and started one of her designs. I had all 4 million pieces cut out, but couldn't get them together. I put them in a bag and threw them in a closet. A friend eventually took them and is putting them together for me, but I threw the books out in the garage, and I sincerely hope the roaches have eaten them. As God is my witness, I will never be hung......(oops, sorry, wrong movie) I will never do a Pam Bono design again!

The next quilt I have planned is "Wickedly Easy" . . . king size, however.

I think I'll stay clear too. It would be a pretty pattern to applique though. Then maybe it wouldn't be as many pieces. I have a couple of Pam's patterns, now I'll see what they really are like before I try any.

140 pieces to each block? 139 seams? Are you insane????
But you persevered, and it's beautiful. I don't see anything wrong with it.
I like your label, too. Did you use printable fabric and print that from your computer? I wondered how I'd ever make a label, short of embroidering every letter, as I don't want to just write one with marker or pen. Yours is legible and all fabric.
