Stars Quilt


Hello, I hope you are having a lovely week. I'm still recovering from a very busy weekend. We celebrated my husband's birthday in the company of family and friends. That is always fun! And I finally finished my Stars Quilt that I have been working on since the beginning of the year. Wow! that was a long process. This has been the largest quilt I have made so far; it measures 70X80 inches, so hand stitching the binding took me a while to finish. The quilting is simple diagonal straight lines meeting in the middle. I'm really happy with the way this quilt turned out and I'm sooo ready for a new quilting adventure.

Quilt Stats:
Measurements: 70X80 inches
Fabric: Denyse Schmidt Chicopee,  DS Quilts and Kona White.
Machine Quilted

  6. Martha, your quilt is beautiful! I love this pattern so much. It is still on my to do list; I just haven't had enough time for sewing. I'm also still trying to decide if I want to use a mix of all my Denyse Schmidt fabric or a mix of some red, white & blue. Or maybe I should make both--when I finally have the time! :) yours looks like a very generous sized quilt. Perfect for draping across the bed.
