Today I made a decision about how to quilt Seeing Stars. Of course inspiration struck as I started a different project! I did draw out my design on a photo of the quilt so I wouldn’t forget before I get around to actually quilting it.
The new project does have a deadline, so I’m putting it first. Plus it involves these fabrics, and you know I have trouble resisting brights.
From the left you see the backing, the borders, the background and the stars. Back in September 2010 I played with this idea in a doll sized quilt with the intention of making a larger quilt all in blues if it worked.
I liked how it turned out but I never got around to doing anything else with the idea. This weekend I was asked to make a baby quilt and I decided this might be the time to try out the design again. I have a fun border planned for it too. We’ll see how it turns out!
Beautiful bright fabrics, and right down your alley too! If you do use that pattern, it will be a fabulous quilt! ---"Love"---
ReplyDeletePretty fabrics...I would be tempted too. Looking forward to seeing the baby quilt!
ReplyDeleteOooohhh pretty fabrics! I look forward to seeing how you apply those in the quilt. I have no doubt whatever you do will be gorgeous, but it's fun to see the process (when I'm not too busy being a slacker blogger/blog reader...)
