And there's more....

Mary's purple star quilt looks wonderful with 'picturesque' as the edge to edge design, it's a lovely feminine pattern in lilac thread. Mary chose an interesting backing fabric, you could lie in bed and read the quilt instead of the papers on a Sunday morning......

I have a similar newspapery wide backing fabric if anyone is interested.....

We chose a variegated thread for Nan's bold star quilt and 'Midsummer' as the edge to edge design, it turned out lovely. Another bright backing fabric with peacock feathers.....

Jane's lovely trip around the world has lovely shades of pale buttery lemon, aqua, teals and greys, we chose dogwood a lovely open flowery design in an aqua thread that shows up subtly on the backing fabric....
