I can't say enough about the pattern and to think you hand stitched it. You deserve a blue ribbon in my book. Thank you for sharing it with us.

The pattern I used was from "Little Bits". The pattern is for one feathered star block about 36 in square with borders. I made nine of these to bring it to the size I wanted. I did change the center block from the pattern-the pattern has a miniature feathered star with pieces less than 1/2 inch in size. I made it once for a wall hanging but sure did not want to to that nine time. We found "Little Bits" at a quilt show, but I believe she has a web site. I have enclosed a picture of that quilt.

Thank you to all for your lovely comments. I don't do anything special, I just enjoy what I do. Someone commented that perhaps one day my daughter will make one also - sorry, I don't think this daughter would know how to sew on a button.

Your DD is going to be "over the moon" when she gets that beauty. Congrats on an awesome quilt.

Your quilt takes my breath away....just exquisite...

WMUTeach 01-31-2014 04:49 AM

Oh, so lovely. I hope my daughter is not watching this thread and then expect a quilt of such beauty from me. (Really if she asked, I would do it but ..... she could do it herself. She is a quilter too!)

I am sure you are definitely back in favor (don't think you ever weren't!). That quilt is stupendous - my current favorite colors and so beautifully designed, made, and quilted.

Just one question: do you adopt???
