Big Star Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
Finishing this just in time to wash and wrap for Christmas! I took it off the frame yesterday and have half of the binding on; it's the same red as the inner border. It's for my DDIL who wanted a BIG Christmas quilt. I can't wait to see how it crinkles up once it's washed. That's one of my favorite parts of quilting. I hope the ruler work around the stars make them pop.

She will love it, its beautiful! Did you buy that poinsettia fabric in the outer border recently? Do you have the name? I really like it.

Very pretty, I used to do this pattern all the time, then I branched out and it's been years. I still like the looks of it.

Beautiful quilt. I really like the stars and the openness of the background. It makes for an attractive quilt. I really like the bordering and binding. I like the crinkling of a washed quilt.

Teddybear Lady 12-22-2015 10:02 PM

It's very pretty! I love the "crinkle" part of quilting too. I wash my quilts before giving them away because I like to feel the texture and to make sure no colors run.

southernmema 12-23-2015 05:19 AM

Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous! She will be thrilled with it! Beautiful, beautiful work!

Yes, I just bought it a few weeks ago. It's part of the Moda Christmas toile line.

Here's a picture of the selvedge with the correct information. This piece is actually from the backing but it's the same line of fabric. [ATTACH=CONFIG]538653[/ATTACH] Ps. Thanks for all of the supportive comments! I just started quilting on a mid arm so am learning a lot!
