The project is made from 25 star sampler blocks and 24 connector blocks. I wanted a nice flow to finish the design edge, so I imported the basic photo into EQ, then played around a bit..... okay, a lot. I was so happy with the border finish and so inspired to get the quilt together.
These are 12" blocks. This quilt finishes at 108" x 108". I work on a DSM in a somewhat small space, and so, sadly, I took the easy road in quilting it. It has Hobbs 80/20 batting and legacy muslin on the back. A quilt this large is a huge stretch for me. I persevered and am so happy it is a finish.
