00/00/0000 - This is my very first quilt which I made for my mum. I found a picture of a quilt in the US called "Twilight" but couldn't get hold of the pattern, so used this as an exercise to work out how to make the blocks by hand. I spent 3 months hand-quilting it with outline quilting for the stars and 4-patches, and feathers and swirls everywhere else. I finished two days before Christmas. Mum loves it, so not bad for a first quilt :) .
