Past Project - Orchids and Stars



I recently finished this wall quilt. Although this photo was taken prior to machine quilting. It was a guild challenge to make and complete last fall. Needless to say I was a bit late in finishing. It is based on a free pattern from P&B Textiles, Summer Stars:

I decided to add an additional challenge to myself and use only fabrics from my scrap bin. I also added the 3-D flower border based on the orchid pattern from Kumiko Sudo's book Fantasies and Flowers. Each flower is also beaded in the centers.
