    the postage stamp quilt top is finished! and it's king-ish sized! it measures 91 x 91 inches, 169 16-patch blocks, + exactly 2900 two-inch squares. that, friends, is a lot of piecing (no strip piecing, here!)

    it feels really good to get this top finished + i'm now anxious to start another scrappy long-term quilt project.
