Constellation Traveler

Well the most positive thing that has come out of breaking my foot, has been completing Mum's quilt.

Yes - it's done. I've even washed it too :)

This is the quilt hanging on the line to dry. The "wiggles" in the border (outside edge) is the wind - not a wonky edge.

The star.


The outside rings.


I've worked out that this quilt has taken over 1,200 hours to make.

I drafted the pattern myself. Hand and machine pieced. Designed the quilting layout/pattern myself, and hand quilted it.

This quilt was a complete labor of love. I hope my Mum likes it. The quilts name is "Constellation Traveler".
