There are now no WIPs left in my house, as this was the only thing hanging and hanging around. It can now be thrown on the floor as a gift and needle catcher under our Christmas tree.

I wish there were some way to really capture the fabric in this quilt, because that's the spectacular part of this. The blue is speckled with stars that reflect rainbow light, like tiny pools of oil. The white looks like it has been sprinkled with glitter and the two together catch and throw light like crazy. I think it's going to be great under the tree. My DH is red/green colour-blind, hence the blue, and it works for him!

That is amazing! I love the colors! It will look great under the tree with the lights on the tree reflecting! :)
