The day has finally arrived! Okay, so maybe you haven't been waiting, but Megan and I have worked hard on these quilts and our Lucky Stars Quilt-A-Long, we really hope you will join us!
We created our quilts from the beautiful Happy Go Lucky fabric line from Bonnie and Camille, for Moda fabrics. We thought it would be fun to use the same fabric line and pattern but show how different they can look in different colorways! What do you think??
Heathers Lucky Stars quilt finish. LOVE it! I worked hard the last week!
We've both fallen madly in the love with this pattern (and with each other's quilts). There's already discussion of switching at some point.
Megan's Lucky Stars quilt finish. Love the navy background. Makes it all "pop!"

I'd love to try (your quilts are BEAUTIFUL), but have a question. I've only made one quilt and it was super basic (just stripes). What skill level would you rate this quilt? Is it something that a beginner would have luck with or do you think it would be too challenging?
ReplyDeleteOh, also meant to ask how big is this quilt??
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts - need to see where I stand on committments because there are multiple qals that I really really want to attempt ... but with terminal cancer I need to set boundaries on what I tackle.

Hi, I as wondering what the dimensions are and if it still counts if I make it even bigger?
ReplyDeleteSounds good! I think I'll be joining!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea. I just don't have time to join a QAL right now. Hopefully next time.
ReplyDeleteI want to be in! I'm hoping to keep up - because prizes are fun to win!
ReplyDeleteI definitely want to participate in this QAL do I have to do anything to participate? As in sign up anywhere?
ReplyDeleteWas it yesterday, or is it next wed when you give the fabric requirements?
ReplyDeleteI'm in! Do we need to sign up somewhere?
ReplyDeleteI'm confused; Do we get cutting instructions today or do we need to sign up somewhere else?
ReplyDeleteAre the cutting instructions posted somewhere?
