Design Source - Description | I saw this quilt in the Henry Ford Museum quilt book. It was done in mid 1800s by Susan McCord who loved small triangles. I started this quilt 2008 and finally put the finishing stitches in it on New Years Eve 2010 - so it really was a 3 year project. There are over 10,000 pieces in this quilt and over 700 yds of quilting thread. But who's counting? |
