    It's absolutely stunning. Please keep making it so that we can see it finished. I love your colour choices too.

    Thanks, everyone. It's a pattern I saw from a quilt picture I saw posted here...I forget who it was that had posted, it was about a year or so ago. The pattern is Bella Bella Venice Rose. Yep, it's paper pieced. Eighteen pieces per wedge, 40 wedges. I have about 3/4 of the wedges done, and now I'm starting to put some together, so I feel there is progress. :lol:

    When it's done, it will have the round band around the woven centre, a mariner's compass of my own design in the very centre, and corners to square it up with smaller mariner's compasses.

    Here's a link to the quilts in the book the pattern is from. I think next I will try her Carnevale for my husband and I.

    i am so impressed. i just checked out the site and her work is terrific looking, but also designed to make a person go blind. i can't give you enough credit!

    what is the finished size of the quilt? and how do you plan on quilting it?
