When I heard about the IMQE one year ago, I was immediately fascinated and this thrill to get to know something new was so great. I slept one more night and then registered directly. From this moment my heart beat a little faster and many thoughts and questions went through my head. My partner is a great, creative woman, and I have grown very fond of her during this time. We have written a lot of mails, not only about our sewing preferences, our favorite colors and patterns, quilting by hand or sewing machine, also about ourselves, our families. where we live and what we do ( if we do not sew)! finally, we decided on a pattern and it was clear to us: we sew a pair of twins. At first we decided to make the ‘itty bitty feathered star, by Cindi Edgerton‘ as a center medallion, the further design followed a little later, designed by my team partner Joanne. My quilt top is made only of batiks in paperpieced method. I quilted it freehand with the sewing machine and provided it with an invisible binding. Title: ‘my star in your galaxy‘ Beginning: november 2017 Finishing: Februar 2018 Dimensions: 18,5“ x 18,5“ Without the IMQE, I didn’t think about to sew a miniature quilt, that was a very big challenge for me and I'm so curious about the 'twin' who comes to me one day, how did my teammate implement our pattern?
