Annette asked about the pattern for the quilt on the bed from my last post. Luckily I knew I had it ... in the folder I keep of patterns used for quilts that I have made. Actually, it was where it should have been, only I had to hunt for the folder as it was moved in the re-organizing.
From McCall's Quilting in June 2005, the pattern is called Star Light. The basic block is a large pinwheels and the sashing creates the stars. I pieced this the summer of 2006 on my Featherweight as my domestic machine had died and not been replaced yet.
I made it larger ----and in 2 sections for easier quilting----as I wanted it wide enough to hang long and cover the sides of the bed. I think it ended up about 90'' by 110''. The original was in red and cream. If you are a follower in dire need of the pattern, email me with a request. I have a PDF.
Happy stitching.
