It is a Hoop Sisters Quilt. Everything is done in the hoop. Each month you do 12 blocks and the border was an additional 48 blocks. It is a QAYG. I chose to just add a back to it rather than doing the hand stitching that is required to finish the back. Each block takes about 50 minutes to complete. I chose a fabric for the border that I did not use in the quilt, many who did the quilt with me used the fabrics from the stars in the border.
