Approximately 50,000 yards of thread and 5 million stitches created the thread painted designs. The background fabric
was hand painted and Tsukineko Inks were used to ink the doors and windows on the houses and bias sided stores. My
grandchildren are the merchants in the town. It took approximately 1500 hours of frustration, a ton of trial and error
and incredible fun and ultimately total joy to complete the quilt. Take a look around the town and step back in
history a bit.
