    Just a thought that might help you, have you considered using the pellon that comes with premarked squares? You have done such a great job on sewing all those little squares, I just thought this might be easier and go faster.

    I like this, but why do you call it a postage stamp? Are the pieces random or is there an order, ie: values, colors, patterns, etc.

    No I haven't thought of that, thanks! Silly question, how do you sew the squares on?

    Also, there is usually a swap going on for swapping sets of postage stamp squares. Just an idea~~ :)

    exactly! I cut some pieces for her and some for my own jacob's ladder, and I decided I would never be able to do a postage stamp quilt. I don't have enough fabrics to do that or the patience, but I applaud anyone who does!
