TGIFF - Beothuk Star

The Beothuk Star Quilt Along started in April 2019.  Sandra @ Musings of a Menopausal Melon hosts a QAL every year, and it's always fun to sew along.

This quilt top has been waiting since June 2019 while I tried to figure out a quilting plan.  I have been enjoying some big stitch hand quilting with perle cotton, so I finally settled on that.  I used #EZ03 Silverware perle cotton by Wonderfil.  It blended so well, it was hard to photograph.


I am still amazed at how much I have been enjoying big stitch hand quilting.  So much so, I just ordered 18 balls Wonderfil perle cotton. 😊


I can't wait to see what Sandra has planned for the 2021 QAL.


This was one of my 2020 PHD projects.  PHD is hosted by Gail @ Quilting Gail.  I think I have three more projects left to finish, but there's still four more weeks left in 2020.

  5. It's awesome to see how many quilts are are able to hand quilt, I always assumed it would be a long process to get a quilt hand quilted but you are turning that notion upside down for me.

  9. Fantastic colors! I, too, love big stitch hand quilting, but I don't do nearly as much of it as you do. That's a lot of Wonderfil to have on hand. :)

  10. This is really pretty. The thread does blend but it gives it such great texture.
