seeing stars in tilda

Like lots of you, I work on more than one thing at a time, 
but top of my list today was adding the binding to this little quilt.









Tilda back & front








'Seeing Stars in Tilda' quilt details:

Pattern: I used the sawtooth star block measurements I had here, there's heaps of tutorials available.
Fabric: Love 💕how the past & present lines of #tildafabrics can mix & match so seamlessly. 
Backing: A scrappy improv mashup of my Tilda fabrics, mixing some new with (very) old.
Quilting: Leeanne from quiltmekiwi used an E2E panto, 'Peeling Good'. The quilting really made this quilt come together; the curves seem to balance the straight piecing lines and extend out into the border too for some added visible texture.
Binding: I used a two-tone blue stripe for binding, it seems to frame all the Tilda colours nicely.
Quilt measurements: 48" x 59"
Donated to Hospice.

A lovely finish with that gorgeous blue striped binding. Wonderful quilting as well. So good to have a finish.

Congratulations, great finish, Tilda fabric is such an adventure. And the machine quilting, Peeling Good is a good choice.
I like the peacock star in your first photo, romantic.

Such a sweet finish! I love sawtooth stars in almost any colors, but these work very well.:)

Very pretty! It's such a sweet quilt. I've seen Tilde fabrics but have never used them. They make into charming quilts.
