    Default Boondoggle Quilt - A bias challenge
    I finally worked up the courage to make this unusual quilt, which has lots of bias edges.
    The uneven edge also made the binding a challenge, but it turned out better than I expected.
    It seemed to need more quilting than quilts cut on the straight grain of the fabric.
    I eliminated one row of blocks to make it a wheelchair size lap quilt.
    All the fabric was from my stash -- yeah!

    You did a great job. I try my best to avoid bias edges. I am sure the recipient of this quilt will enjoy it's beauty every day.
