This is the first quilt I've ever posted here and the largest quilt I've made so far--about 52"x57". I saw this in the Joy of Quilting and loved it. My next challenge is a full sized quilt. I work really slowly :)

Very cute quilt! I work slowly too, so I hear what you are saying. But keep plugging away. I tell myself: slow and steady wins the race, although it's not a race.

Very nice! What a great idea for a little boy's quilt. Although when I was little and wanted to be an astronaut, I would have loved it too!

What a neat idea to use an Attic Window for a space quilt!

Some little boy or girl will be very happy!

I work really slowly
Me too.

That is so cool. I love the little surprise of the rocket behind the window.

That's really cute!

This is the perfect quilt for a little boy. It could be a substitute for a bedroom window, a quilted window to inspire dreams and adventures. I just love this quilt.
Do you remember which Love of Quilting it comes from. I have access to several and don't remember seeing this one. Great work. Thank you for sharing.

It's from the book The Joy of Quilting by Hanson & Hickey, Martingale Press 1995.
I felt the same way about it; but actually, I have it hanging in my office at work--I guess I'm a little boy at heart. :)
