But Who's Counting...?

Sandy D. took a count of the total pieces of fabric that she cut for her Civil War Chronicles quilt and the number is pretty amazing...(drum roll, please)...four thousand five hundred and forty-nine pieces. Yes, that's 4,549! Sandy thought about counting the number of half square triangles but decided that enough was enough. However, I don't think you'll be surprised to know that Month 12 took the honors with 1768 pieces. Despite all the hard work--or perhaps because of it--this is a magnificent quilt. Definitely a family heirloom!
