I wasn't able to get it finished in time..there has been a lot happening...but when this number was drawn out last month - I had a top with no side borders. So I have managed to add the borders, pin it, quilt the vertical lines and most of the horizontal lines (apart from where I want it to be the aqua thread), bound it and have started to fill in the night sky with stars.
I want to add a moon and many more stars, but a few people have commented on it and I thought I'd show you the "in progress" shots.
The quilt is based on a pattern in Tula Pink's 100 Modern Quilt Blocks book. I've adapted it to fit existing hangers and spaces on my walls.
a sample of the night time stars....many more to be added....
Not great photos - I will get better ones when I'm finished.
Your Skyline Quilt looks fantastic and will be even better when all the stars and moon are added.
