A finish!

I’m so pleased to have finished the Star Trek quilt in time to be posted before Christmas.  I was worried for a while that I wouldn’t make my deadline and I HATE being late for anything.  I wanted to bind it in a red and black pattern, but couldn’t get any fabric the right colour so I ended up using a black with soft grey stars on it (hard to see in the pics), I think it works well and softens the harsh look of the quilt a bit.

This quilt was such a fabulous challenge for me.  When I took on the commission I though I would just be able to buy some Star Trek prints and knock up a very easy quilt.  Little did I know that you can’t get Star Trek fabric and that I would have to use my brain a bit for this one. It was great for me to see such a great quilt at the end and to be pushed out of my comfort zone a wee bit.  Thanks Kylie for the commission and challenge.

Live long and prosper!
