It is common to say that opposites attract. The same can be said for quilting when the two fabrics you didn't like somehow look amazing together. Magnetic Attraction by Gail Stepanek and Jan Hutchison puts that theory into practice. "Four paper-pieced Compass blocks that didn't "play well" with the others were cast aside for over a year until they found this new home." Featured at Houston 2017 in the Traditional Pieced category, machine piecinghand appliqué, and "Jan's original quilting designs add great interest" to a quilt that not so long ago was poles apart in its construction.

Magnetic Attraction by Gail Stepanek and Jan Hutchison of New Lenox, Illinois was featured in the Traditional Pieced category at Houston 2017.

Unless my monitor's colour is completely off
I cannot see why these fabrics don't match.
Pink green and purple are a common colour scheme.
Nice quilt.

Love the end result. The compass blocks are super.

Looks like the compass blocks found the perfect home and a happy completion.
