That's a great-looking quilt. I'm thinking of a scrappy version with the stars and border in one color, the churn dashes in another, and the background and four patches scrappy.

Shannon Cuddle is the only brand I will buy. Far superior IMHO to any other. I've had no trouble quilting it with a sit-down Tiara or with a long-arm. And there is a lot less fuzz to deal with too.

I’m good at choosing fabrics/colors for my quilts. I’m bad at being creative. I’d much rather follow a pattern. I’m more a technician than an artist.
