    Default I finally finished my Gypsy Wife quilt!
    Shwoo this one was doozy. I will never make it ever again but glad I stuck with it! I got the blocks done easily but had a hard time getting the sections put together. Let me tell you if you are planning on making it, find the Facebook group for Jen Kingwell patterns. I would have done mine totally different if I had that group from the start.

    Mine is half done. Gave up, it was just too difficult for me at this time.

    watson's mom - weren't the instructions terrible? I totally understand putting it away. I spent about 4 months on it because I had to take long breaks from it. Stressed the heck out of me!

    A lesson in patience for sure. Lovely finish and lessons learned. Too bad the instructions were a hindrance but whoo-hoo that you found a group to support one another to the finish.
