"The sky is filled with stars, invisible by day."

This is a quote by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. However, this is a Star quilt by me.

But, of course, there would be no Star quilt, if it wasn't for The Super-talented Melissa Corry. There were quite a few participants in Melissa's Seeing Stars Quilt Along. Check them out for some awesome eye candy!

I really liked this pattern and it is unique because there are many different blocks. We sewed each type of star block in one week. I'll admit that, a few times, I almost did not get the blocks completed on time. However, I kept pressing on, and now I have a finished quilt that I can use.

I quilted mine in a cross-hatch on the diagonal. I think it turned out fine and "nice and crinkly-soft".  For the back, I used a wavy line of stars.

My husband and I will be enjoying this newly-completed quilt this Winter.
Thanks so much, Melissa, for this awesome Quilt Along. And thanks to all of the quilt along participants for your quilting encouragement.

Starry Quilt Top

Finished my quilt top for the Seeing Stars Quilt Along.

Now for the quilting. I plan on quilting this with a Crosshatch on the diagonal. With a larger quilt like this, that's pretty much what I can do. It gets kind of aggravating trying to maneuver the quilt through my Brother machine. I have to spread it out over a good many evenings. This is a nice size quilt that I will be able to use it on my camper bed. We are going on a short trip at the end of October so, hopefully, I will have it done by then.
