Photoshoot on a windy afternoon. Stargazing with Amy finishes at 28" * 36", quilted with perle cotton on Quilters Dream Request batting using big baptist fan stencil to mark the quilting lines.
The blocks are made of spare parts from a previous quilt: Sizzix stars. They are purposely fragmented with star points swapped between them. Dark on light background and the other way around. Quite playful or chaotic, depending on the observer...
I think of this as a sketch, wanting to experiment with other colorways and other fabrics than quilting cottons. Another result from emptying out the boxes of pre-cuts, wip's and ufo's. That's the theme of 2016 for me so far...
; )
Happy stitching to all!

I think it's a great sketch and I think you should explore it more. I love a good windy day myself!
I love it! So playful. It's got just the right amount of unpredictability. You make me want to do something with my spare blocks!
Hi Marit! What a lovely quilt! Beautiful and fun - and they are all stars! x Teje
