Needlework Tuesday - The Stars are Shining

 

It's finished. Yes, I did a little happy dance, then got out the camera to try and take pictures. I do realise that some quilts are just too big to lay on the floor for photos. I would have taken it outside to hang up, but it was pouring rain out there.  Measures about 70 inches square.  I am planning to machine quilt feathers in those big open spaces.  This will be a huge challenge for me as I've only done feathers a few times, but with patience and practise before hand, I'll get it done, eventually.

 

To recap for new visitors, the large blocks were made during a year long BOM program at my local quilt shop.  The pattern is "Building Blocks" by Sharyn Craig and the setting for the quilt is "All in the Family Sampler" in Judy Martin's book Knockout Blocks and Sampler Quilts.
