Nearly a top

I have had chance this weekend to do some more work on my purple stars quilt. I had an idea on how to make a double bed sized quilt out of nine 12" stars.


I need to add borders (probably green then purple) but I'm quite pleased on how it's turned out. I wish the green cornerstones had been darker to show up the Irish Chain a bit better, but maybe once it's quilted the diagonals will be stronger. What do you think?

I think it looks great. A purple border will look wonderful.

Looks good to me Linda, Green then purple will be a perfect finnish.

Well I think that's really stunning Lynda and I'll be looking forward to seeing the finished product. Looks fab.

Looks great.
I like your idea of skirt hangers and wardrobe doors. It's a pity my walk in/dressing room only has a normal room sized door. LOL

Lovely scrappy quilting - like your blog. I live in Derby so not far from you. Do you know the Fabric Guild in Leicester?
