The antique store in Lambertville, NJ where I went book browsing had this on the wall. The store is called The People’s Store, and they were nice enough to let me take photos of this quilt. They were selling it for $875, so the photos are all that I brought home with me. I really like the design of this. I might try to do something like this one day, but it’s kind of an overwhelming idea. If I’m stressed out cutting the pieces for a fairly structured quilt, keeping track of this might make me lose my hair or something.

I finally finished cutting out all the pieces for this quilt. Twenty-eight blocks in 2 different patterns, 13 pieces to a block. Plus the top and side pieces. My rotary cutter and self healing mat are not happy. Now I can start sewing. As I mentioned earlier, I think this is going to take quite a while. But it will be very cool if I get it done.
