    Have your husband go to this website http://www.thesupper.net/ and take a look at The Supper Quilt. It's truly amazing. I think the maker of that quilt and your husband may have something in common - a love of creating quilts with tiny pieces of fabric.

    I am speechless! If they're 5/8" squares, finish at 1/4, that means 3/8 of the fabric is folded under - more fabric on the back of the quilt than on the front! Does he trim the seam allowance after he sews it? Pressing all that would be a feat it inself. Wow!!!

    It seems to be the men who do these tiny piece quilts. We saw one in a museum in KY, tiny hexagons, all hand pieced - by a man.
