Whew!



This block is called Sad and lonely days in the Civil War Diary Quilt book. It has 72 little pieces and took approximately 5 hours to make. I had to do it in several sewing sessions. I like how it turned out. It went together pretty well but so many little pieces!

Remeber the area of this quilt. They used to use up every scrap they had to make blankets to keep their babies and themselves, and soldiers, warm. I like it. I couldn't figure out what blk would have that many pieces, but you are so right, this one would!!
You did a great job on it -- looks very well done. And yes, it took some time, but your next one will be faster!! ;-)
