The Jane A. Stickle quilt was created in 1863. It consists of 169 blocks, each 4.5 inches in size, and surrounded by a triangle border. It is considered a masterpiece of American quilting.
I love the idea of the Jane Stickle quilt and kind of want to make one. You can buy kits for it. The examples I have seen are beautiful. It is a ton of work with 169 blocks.
This block looks like a neat one to pick fabrics out for. This could be changed into so many different color combinations.

U.S.A. Map Quilt
These tiny states are evil in my humble opinion. I wouldn't have wanted to make the whole map bigger so these were also bigger, but something would have been nice to make them bigger. Not sure how that would be accomplished.
