    Default Street Directory Quilt Finished

    My 'Ulverstone' Street Directory Quilt is finished, well almost, just need to do a couple of minor things to it. It took me a whole morning just to quilt the white lines on the highway and the roundabouts and on/off ramps were a nightmare to figure out especially as I hadn't intended to do that much detail when I first started the quilt !

    What a mammoth job but it has turned out okay and I'm quite happy with the end result.

    Now what to do with it??? LOL I am hoping the local Council will want to display it in the foyer of the Council Chambers and I will go see them and take the quilt in the next week or so.

    Thanks for looking.
