This gorgeous quilt was designed and made by Michelle Yeo using her new fabric range Tarrytown.
The free downloadable pattern is available here.
I love how Michelle fussy cut the fabric for each star. Even though it takes longer I decided to ditch stitch the stars to let the fabric shine. If you look closely, I also emphasised the octagon shape around each star with straight lines, which unfortunately doesn't show up in the photo that well.
The border fabric is so beautiful. Originally I was going to quilt it more heavily, but decided to keep the quilting lighter to once again showcase the fabric.
I just spent a few minutes going back through your last few posts. WOW, you don't disappoint with the gorgeous quilting. The Dahlia quilt border area is simply amazing. Thanks for sharing.
