This is really funny but I just finished this quilt design from a LQS at a retreat in the North Georgia mountains. After looking at this quilt for a long time, I decided to do a three leaf pattern in the lighter areas around the stars. I didn't want to make it too busy but wanted the stars to pop out so I highlighted them with outline stitching. For the small beading, I used a wavy line from corner to corner, following the pattern across the quilt. This brought out the beading. For the larger beading I used smaller leaf pattern following the beading across the quilt. When I get it back from a friend, I will post it. Hopefully, you were also at the same retreat! JC
