This is my customers quilt. She told me to customize it for her and do what ever I wanted. I looked at the quilt for a few days and not only did it sing to me but I just kept seeing stars. The red and blue fabric that she chose has stars in it. So I quilted stars all over this quilt. There are 100 stars per block and 1876 stars from top to bottom.
Thank you for taking a look.

Beautiful quilt and the quilting really brought it to life. I am always curious when I see such perfectly symmetrical LA quilting if a panto or stencil was used or computer guided. I don't think it is humanly possible to get such perfect symmetry and all the elements the same size like this when free-hand quilting with no tools, marking or aids but I am still a newby to LA quilting. So could you elaborate please what technique you used to acheive such beautiful results? Thanks!
