It's all about the fabrics!
I am still working on my postage stamp blocks, I like making a few at a time so they don't wind up looking all the same. I am always cutting squares and putting them in a bin to use in this quilt.
I really want the blocks to have lots of variety. This quilt will probably take me another year to complete. I made another block yesterday.

Holy Postage Stamp, Batman! Awesome.
You have really come quite a food ways on this. And yes, I do recognize quite a few fabrics. Looking good!
Wow!! :0)
That is going to be stunning!!!
This looks fun. I like it!!!!
I think I see a piece from my stash...it is the 3 block from the left in the 4th row...lol amazing feat! Are those 1 or 2 inch blocks...can't remember?
What's not to love! Absolutely amazing!
That is amazing. What a great way to chronicle your fabrics!
I haven't worked on my stamp quilt in a good while. I had an idea that I wanted to think about for a bit before going further. 10,000 squares sounds like a whole lot of work!
Okay Kathie, Wow! That's it just Wow. Oh yea and Wow. :)

Love it! Yes, I have seen some of my fabrics in this. I do love postage stamp quilts, but I have only made small, doll quilt sized ones.
Now that is going to be one cool quilt! Awesome!
My jaw just hit the desk. This is amazing! And, yeah, I recognize a piece from my stash - the one right there next to that red one! ;) You're totally my hero du jour!!
Awesome. What is the size of the blocks.
All I can say is, WOW!
I bet you have a bit of everything in there!! What a great quilt!!
This is so great! I totally want to do one now, too!
what a masterpiece!! OMG
I couldn't agree more. I've been working on one by hand for the last few years (http://rie-quiltbee.blogspot.ca/2012/03/youve-got-some-mail.html) and the more variety I can get into it the richer it becomes. It's like a quilt diary of projects that I've worked on and those that family and friends have been working on too (they've been kind enough to toss a few 2" blocks my way). Keep going - it looks great.
I love that and so many blocks with different materials, you amaze me with the projects you do.

This is scrap magic, Kathie! Absolutely incredible!!
This is so inspiring!
WoW oh wow! That's all I can say! I have started cutting 1.5" squares from scraps to do this also. So far all I have is a basket of squares waiting for more pieces to get more scrappy before I start sewing! Yours Looks wonderful!
Wow, it really sparkles. What a treasure that will be to look at all those fabrics when its done.
Wow - this is what ambition looks like!!!
You have been so busy! WOW!
WOW!!! This is a lifetime achievement, a real masterpiece!
WOW!!! This is a lifetime achievement, a real masterpiece!
Yikes! You go girl!
It's gonna be something else when it's finished.
Oh lala, the kind i love, formidable, and love from Paris, Will V
LOL I love the first comment - Holy Postage Stamp, Batman! It's perfect! :)
And so is your quilt! W.O.W. Absolutely fabulous. But there are two green squares together in the third row... ;)
So hurry up and finish so we can see it!
Wow, that's impressive. Best wishes on your quilt!
This is just wonderful and a bit OCD!!!
It reminds me of the hymn, "Earth with her 10,000 flowers. . . Making great progress!
That is absolutely the most amazing quilt. Well done Kathie and good luck with the next 10,000 ... Ann (new blog)
Kathie, you are my main inspiration! I have completed 9 blocks and have piles of stamps waiting to be sewn. It is positively the most fun quilt I have ever made, and I intend to live long enough to finish it!!!
Scrap quilts have always been my favorites, but THIS quilt is taking it to a whole new level! Wow!
Wow, it makes me gasp, it's a beauty.
WOWZERS!!!!!!
This will be a Wow! quilt some day...really looking beautiful!
Very cool! You are right to be patient and make just a few at a time. This quilt will remind you of all the other quilts you've made. What a treasure trove of fabrics! Oh, yes - I do recognize some of those fabrics.!
