Default Latest Addition to my quilt of the month collection to help cover the ugly fireplace!

Here is August's quilt. I used my lil twister tool and then used the scraps to make 9 patch cornerstones. I used a poly batting to add loft so it might have the illusion of clouds, do you see any clouds? The fabric is Summer Breeze by Moda and a new to me way to hang the quilt with tabs to make it look bigger
