Finally!

Well, it took me a lot longer that I thought it would, but here it is! This is A Breath of Avignon fabric by Moda, and the Three Coins pattern by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. (See previous post.)
I have adapted the pattern a bit to fit my king size bed. Instead of 9 blocks (3X3) in the center, my center consists of 16 blocks (4X4). That meant 20 star blocks instead of 16. I also added an additional row of half square triangles around the outside edge. That made the outside edge look like the blocks in the center. I think I will also add one more border, perhaps one of the red fabrics, to bring out the red in the stars. The pattern doesn't call for a border, but I think I need to make it a little bigger (You can see my current quilt peeking out underneath the new top.....) We do sell the kit in the shop. (It's not online yet, and it's going so fast that I don't think we will put it up there.) You can call the shop if you want to order one....406-420-1003. I bought two kits to make my quilt. I did have some fat quarters left over.....I will use them to make pillows!
