Topic: Quilting
I love the patterns found on Missouri Star Quilt Company. I think the pattern I used today is called Ribbon Stars.
I picked up three disparate purples from full bolts being de-aquisitioned from the church costume closet - I think they were probably used for the three wise men. Several of us cut off a couple of yards to use.
When the purples were next to each other they really didn't go together. Then I went to a yard sale this summer and a lady was selling yardage left over from bridesmaid dressed - a black with flowers in all three of the purples! They also had some blue so I brought in that color in sashing.
The quilting is loop-the-loops in an overall coverage.
The backing was also in the costume closet - dark burgundy with a glitter on it.
