Success!

I have completed the feathered star quilt! It must be one of the quickest quilts I've ever done. I know the feathered star was ready to go, but still, a completed and labelled quilt in five days is pretty good going!

Here is the completed quilt - looking good, though I say so myself!


The quilting was mainly in the ditch, with a little echo quilting round the big white shapes, with one of my favourites (meander with stars) in the border. I have sent the quilt on its way, and hope the proud grandma will appreciate it.

Taalking of appreciating someone's kindness, I have been awarded a Beautiful Blogger Award! Caroline, over at Serendipity Quilts has given it to me! Thank you so much. Caroline. I'm really touched. I would like to spread the love by awarding this to Loulee, over at Manxgirl and Lisa-Jo at Blackbear Cabin. Both ladies have beautiful blogs, which just reflect their beautiful personalities! (And I'm actually being serious here.)

    I adore blue and white quilts, no matter what the design. They just look so clean and fresh. Even with the star already made, that is a quick finish.
    An award? for me? Thank you. :-)
