Love is Love Fabric Collection Sky Full of Stars {Finished Quilt}

I was really hoping that there would be a brief rain shower at the end of the day yesterday so I might get a photo of this finished quilt with a rainbow, but it just got cloudy: no rain and no rainbow.

I don't know about anyone else, but I was really busy at the end of July. I was really glad at the end of last week when I was able to take a deep breath, start working on writing up a pattern for Mum's Garden, and dive into quilting Sky Full of Stars. I took a quick photo of the...
