how many pieces of fabric?

Several people have asked me how many pieces are on the fabric mosaic sculpture.  I have included a photo of the original pieced corgi.  There are 2548 1 1/4" squares on the original quilt.  The sculpture probably has about 2000 on the front.  With the large log cabin on the the back and the smaller squares, there are are probably 800 on the back side.  The base has about 700 pieces - each of the strips for the mini log cabin blocks are 3/4" wide.  This makes an approximate total of 3500 pieces.  I am very thankful for a rotary cutter that helped with the cutting preparation process.  I have also included some photos of my palette of fabric and how I used it.  The layout of the squares is much like arranging paint on a palette.  The value of the different squares is important for the success of the project.

The quilt was created from a photo of this darling Corgi, Roxy. I pixilated it on a program called Photoshop Elements.
