I finished this quilt last Wednesday. It was made from some purple luminaries squares.

I donated it to the Library where I work for the silent auction that is on Oct. 16th. If I make it to the auction I will take some pics and post them.

It is machine pieced and hand echo quilted. I put on my first hanging sleeve on the back. Forgot to photograph the back.

Lovely, it is very soothing, if that makes any sense. You did a great job picking the fabrics. I'd love to see a close up of the quilting!

Thank you all! I can not show a close up picture of the quilting as it is already donated. Sorry. I will try to remember to do this in the future.

Thanks again for the lovely comments.

what pattern is that I have been looking for something like that?

oh never mind I see it is a D9p what size squares did you use?

That is certainly a lovely quilt. I agree that it is soothing. It reminds me of the scent of lavender which is soothing as well. I know the library must be very grateful to you for donating something that will certainly help them raise much needed funds.

I think they were 6" blocks. I think there were 6 blocks of the four different shades of luminaries. I used the dark ones for the center block and have three left over I think, or two. They are in a box somewhere.

I went to the silent auction on Saturday. I took photos of some quilts and will post them when the cord is found to transfer them. Hubby misplaced it when cleaning, of all things.

I found that my quilt aucitoned for $38, started at $35 with one bid at $38.

I hope it is able to buy some books for the library.

So glad your beautiful quilt earned some much needed funds for the library. It was so generous of you to donate it.
