When we finish our quilts, many do not like to hand sew the bindings. Alex has mentioned that she does not enjoy finishing bindings. I have been using this method for several years and always find that the flange adds something special.

 DJane, Your quilt is beautiful. To grow your quilt you might look for ideas from Medallion quilt patterns. A starter idea is one from EQ8. If your center star was the center block, then purple dot fabric, then block border around center square, then you can keep building borders either pieced or just Kaffe fabrics to make it bigger. This other screenshot I saw on line I think if you put another dot border outside your Kaffe blocks, then added sawtooth stars in a double row with the plain block fabric being Kaffe, that would look really good to and finish with another dot border. Just some ideas to get your creative juices flowing. HelenW  |

Sewskeel, I love the color wash effect you have going on your quilt. It looks great as is, but if you want to audition a couple possibilities, I would
put lighter pink in the bottom block outside triangles instead of the orange. The orange looks good, but the shape of the light pink blocks would form a triangle corner of light pink blocks which looks more pleasing to my eye. Also the top right corner blocks just looks a little too dark overall. Dark corners on a dark block. A little out of sync with the rest of the quilt. I would keep the blue wash colors going to the corner block. Looks beautiful. You did great! HelenW  |
