As a follow up of the Texas Truffle post I titled this post "Support and Inspirations". After I had forgotten the challenge that came with making the Texas Truffle I saw this pattern and just had to make it... I ordered the Glacé by 3 Sisters and put it in my to do basket. I was talking to Kelly one day and told her about the Texas Truffle I had made. This conversation inspired me to get my Glacé fabric out and start the "Starlight Express". As you may remember a few weeks ago I showed you the one block of the quilt I had done......and how I was not motivated to make the other three? Well with all your inspirational comments and support here it is...all done... (I cannot count how may pictures I took of this quilt and this is the best one??? With all the seams it appears all wrinkled and dull when it fact it is very vibrant)
I will update this project after it is hand quilted.
Thank you so much for your encouragement in completing this quilt. I just could not let you down!
OMGosh! I truly love it! I am in awe!!!

ReplyDeleteIts absolutely gorgeous! What book is this pattern in - maybe it might be just the pattern for me to make my first lone-star style quilt! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so gorgeous! I have to say, I have this pattern and I have always wanted to make it. But, you make me nervous...you are such a quilter, and if you found it challenging I suspect I would hate it. What were the challenges?
ReplyDeleteJoan it is so beautiful and such a great fabric line. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteOh, Joan, this one is definitely a BEAUTY !! And, Glace was such a great choice of fabrics - it's beautiful !
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I have that fabric and book also . . . maybe I need to think about doing this. Very nice. - Marlene
