WMUTeach - what a beautiful quilt. I'm sure you'll make someone very happy with that.
SkubaK - no pattern really. The blocks are all 14" (finished) carpenter's stars, with an amusing sashing. It was an excuse to use up some fabric and practice Y seams at the same time.

Hydrangea quilt done
Celebrating today - I managed to finish up the quilt I posted about in #357 and others. All fabric came from stash, including the backing pieces. It is the first quilt I have done an all-over meander on. There are definitely a couple of little glitches there but they don't really show up unless you stare really closely at it. I also discovered that when you are hand sewing a purple binding to a green backing, a slate-grey thread blends in better than choosing either of the colours. Another step up on the learning curve! It felt SO good to put that last stitch in - I am not as prolific or experienced a quilter as many of you and I tend to agonize over every last detail (as some of you may have figured out from my posts) so getting a quilt to completion is feeling like a pretty huge deal. :-)
Woohoo!!!
Woohoo!!!
