One of my favorite parts of quilting is selecting the fabric but sometimes it can be the most challenging. I was really torn about the triangles around the center compass. Should I use 2 fabrics in an alternating pattern or just one fabric that is pretty busy.
I went back and forth for quite some time and finally decided on this.
Another difficulty was taping the pattern together as the pattern was printed on several sheets of paper that were downloaded on the computer. Though Esther does a great job of providing accuracy in her patterns and has excellent registration lines, I must have made a tiny error in my cutting and taping as I ended up just a smidge (less than 1/16 inch) small. But it should work fine and here it is on my light table awaiting the background placement.
And finally a little stitching has begun.
I am really enjoying this project and welcome you join me in this journey.
Happy stitching!

Oooooh, it is lovely!! Yours is the first one I have seen with all the triangles and flowers. How exciting!!
It's beautiful! I shall enjoy looking over your shoulder on this journey, but there is no way in heck that I would attempt it myself.
You are really digging into this project in a hurry! Love your progress so far--beautiful!
Don't worry about boring us - your work is so lovely there is no chance! I am in the wings with this quilt - might start it later. It certainly looks to be all-consuming :)
