Twinkle Star Quilt

gg1

This is Gail’s beautiful Twinkle Star wall hanging and it is a paper pieced pattern by Quiltworx.  You can find the pattern and kit here at Keepsake Quilting.  The fabrics are all batiks and this is a great project if you are looking to try one of Quiltworx patterns for the first time.  I just love the teals, green, cream and white combination for colours.

I quilted it with swirls and feathers and CC’s in the star diamonds.  Used white and beige So Fine thread on top, beige Bottom Line on the back and Quilters Dream Blend batting.

I thought it would be neat to share the Before and After pictures of this one. I love how quilting brings a quilt to life!

Oh, I shouldn’t have hung it in my kitchen.  Gail I might just hang on to this one a little bit longer…

  4. I really like the before and after photos. In the white area of the before photo you can clearly see the seam lines. After the quilting was added, they just disappear. It's just lovely---the quilting, the colors and the pattern. Good job to both the maker and the quilter.
