FLOATING STARS is FINALLY DONE

I have been working on this quilt for quite some time.
I was involved with QBSA 12" swap for a while.
This is where it began...

Unfortunately more happened on Facebook than on the blog so I was not able to keep going.

My request was for country stars.  Read about me putting the top together HERE

I have just got to quilting it and am very happy with the results...
It was finished before Xmas as I was giving it away as a gift...
Had a few posts booked in before it so here it is the New Year and my quilt....
FLOATING STARS 12"QBSA quilt is DONE

Binding on this one is 252"

What a great quilt! Stars are a favourite of mine and I love the variety of stars in your quilt. The overlapping blocks are a super idea. What a lovely gift.
