After re-reading Lover's Knot (I had read it previously), I jotted down several notes. From the beginning I knew my quilts would be small. I don't consider myself an art quilter, but it is fun to try new techniques and designs of my own making. I also knew I did not need any more large UFOs lying around - small projects are fun!
So, here is Nell''s New World -- not quite finished - still needs quilting and a few embellishments.

It's quite obvious for those of who have read the book. Nell's new life grows from her heartache of having lost what she thought was a tidy, orderly, and very neutral (LOL), plan of life.
With the exception of the border, it is all fused, according to the Chicago School of Fusing. Laura Wasilowski spoke to our guild a few months ago and I knew I had to try her technique on this project.
