Beyond the Dark Side of the Moon

Beyond the Dark Side of the Moon - This was my first "art" quilt and my contribution to a group challenge to use the "Rainbow Collection" (remember that?) It won a local Best of Show judged by well-known quilt teacher and authority, Becky Herdle (my role model). I learned two good lessons from making this quilt: 1) Never hand quilt what won't show, and 2) Don't trust black fabric to remain black. You won't believe how the black starry background fabric turned a purply gray over the years, even though I kept it in my cedar chest.
