I had to study the picture in your heading wondering how on earth you could piece such a small quilt. I was relieced to see that the small squares were appliqued:-); September 17, 2009 at 11:16 AM

But they are actually a good bit larger than the one featured in an earlier post about being tiny. That one is a handpieced 9 patch with each 9 piece unit about 1 and 1/2 inches (I'm not sure, I don't have it in front of me.) Each square was about 1/2 inch, I think. I started working with really tiny pieces during the years I spent waiting in doctors' offices and hospitals with my daughter.; September 17, 2009 at 1:58 PM
