Due to the overwhelming response to the Fabric of
the Nation, we have more than surpassed our original target of 3000
blocks for an 8-panel tapestry. While we have increased the number
of display panels on Sewing Day to 12 (double-sided), this still
does not cover ALL the patchwork blocks submitted. Contributors
whose blocks are not within the display panels on Sewing Day, pls
do not be unduly worried as rest assured, we will sew them onto
additional panels after the event. Likewise, we're still in the
process of loading the pictures of your patchwork blocks onto the
web. Thank you so much for your warm support to the Fabric of the
Nation project!
