This is the quilt I made for my son-in-law Gabriel. He recently has left the police force to work in another field. I had been working on it forever. Doing the star-field greatly intimidated me. I finally finished it ten o'clock on Christmas Eve. Most quilts I have seen use a fabric pre-printed with stars. I decided to sew each individual star on. My husband, Tom, designed the quilt and made a perfect star-field layout for me to trace so each star would have a perfect placement. We plan on working on quilts together after his retirement. He will do the designing and I will do the sewing.
This is the tag on the back.
It was ordered from Etsy.
