Do a puzzle of Cristina Arcenegui Bono's quilt, My Little Enchanted Compass.

 

My Little Enchanted Compass was based on an illustration by Scottish author Johanna Basford, used with her permission. After discovering coloring books for adults, she decided that that would be her thing and she would convert these illustrations into quilts. After seeing Johanna's designs, Cristina knew that she wanted to adapt them, but found it a challenge at first because the pictures were meant to be colored, not quilted. To get around this, Cristina micro-quilted her quilt so that people could see the figures and shapes stand out. After finishing it, she sent it off to AQS Lancaster where it won First Place in the 1st Entry in an AQS Lancaster Quilt Contest in 2017, thus putting Cristina on the quilting map in the US.
