One of my young grandsons, Connor, asked me if I could make him a starry quilt. After looking through all my magazines for stars, I came across Peaceful Stars by Erica Johnstone and Petra Davies in Patchwork and Quilting Vol.12 No6. I decided to hand piece this quilt so I could take it with me when I went to craft morning. I finished all the blocks early this year and have put them together, I can't decide whether to add another border, Connors mum asked me not to make it too large, I think it might need a small border though. I will have to shop for the backing because I used it for another project, but am undecided, blue or red. I don't like to quilt the childrens quilts, I send them off to be quilted on a long arm machine, they get so much wear and tear I think they need it. Hope to have this one finished very soon.
