    Default Compelling Women finally finished

    After lying sandwiched and abandoned for a year and a half, Compelling Women by Jill Shaulis is finally quilted and bound. This is a wedding gift for my neice who will be married next month in London. This quilt has been several years in the making. Finding the right fabrics was very tricky (the sage greens were hard to find), and making the blocks entailed using three different seam allowance widths within each block to finally get the points accurate. I don't know why, but that's what it took. I do love the way it turned out though.
