Flying to the Stars


I made this quilt for a Scrap Challenge for the Santa Clara Valley Quilt Association.

We paid $5 to fill a gallon ziplock bag with assorted scraps and then had to come up with a quilt. My quilt was machine pieced and both hand and machine quilted. I paper pieced the small stars in the inner field.

I ended up winning $25 in the random drawing of entrants!

It is reflected in the mirror of a dresser made by my father-in-law BR Smith for my oldest daughter Michaele. Abby our pet cockatoo is enjoying her reflection.

My husband Chris made a Murphy bed for my sewing room to allow a second queen guest bed.
I hung this quilt above the bed.
