blogger's quilt festival

when i came across the blogger's quilt festival hosted by amy at amy's creative side, i thought...wow that is so cool. too bad i don't have any quilts to enter...but i do!

my first entry is a quilt that i made as a wedding gift for my very best friend.  it is the very first quilt that i ever made and actually finished.  i decided to make it "2 sided" to be representative of the bride (on one side) and the groom (other side) and their union. the bride is an artist who loves stars and red.  the groom is a jazz musician.

the quilt is lap quilt. it's roughly 50 x 70
