The Lucky Stars Quilt measures 148 x 148 cm - 58 x 58". I didn't want to enclose it in a coloured binding, so went with the background blue/grey with four smallish pieces of the brighter blue cut in. 90% of the fabrics came from Spotlight including the backing. This was one was also quilted by Carol Fearon. It is mainly ditch-stitched which I like because there is less quilting so the quilt is softer.
Lucy the Cat tested it as a washing quilt when I took it outside to photograph.
Star quilts, my favourite. You can never go wrong with stars. They really do pop against that background.

ReplyDeleteLovely blocks and beautiful piecing
ReplyDeleteKaryn, fantastic finish! I love the quilting it lets the blocks show off and carrying the background color to the binding with pops of blue, perfect! I still have my lucky stars quilt to quilt been putting it off as I am not sure how to quilt, think it is time to jump in and finish it.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, love the colours you have used - sets off your cat perfectly.
