    Default Gemstone Quilt Top Finished!!! A Piecing Doozy

    This one challenged me to the nth degree. So point points, HST, FG, etc. I started over a year ago and completed many projects in between so I forgot when I picked it up again which fabric went to which number. Then I vowed to get it done before the end of the year. Five o'clock yesterday I finished it. I really, really like it, in spite of contemplating throwing in the towel. The pattern is a gem--so accurate and when it says 92.5 inches that is what will fit. All batiks which I have never done.
    It is 107x107 King Size. I do not recall so much frogging as this one required. Happy New Year everyone.

    Pat yourself on the back for this beauty. Just stunning and great workmanship on such a difficult top.
