This is the one that got away.
I saw this stunning stunning quilt on pinterest some weeks ago and after much deliberation (the price!) I sent an email off to see if it was still available. It was not, but the buyer's payment hadn't yet come through and if the transaction for some reason didn't go ahead, then I was next on the list. Well, I hoped and hoped and hoped that the cheque would bounce, the buyer would change their mind, anything really, just so that the Luna Quilt could soon be winging it's way to me in Sweden.
But it was just not meant to be, and while the bank balance and Grant are still heaving a collective sigh of relief, I am left drooling over these lovely pics...

Beautiful quilt! I love it! Shame you didn't get it, maybe you could make one?!

Hmmmm, now you've got me thinking Sally! I love the idea of making one for myself! Maybe I can try a cushion first, just to see how difficult the Dresden plate block is. Love your hexagon flower blocks by the way!

I agree, this was going to be my comment - why don't you make one. I made my first quilt last year and am about to start my second this weekend. Basic, nothing like your luna quilt. I hate to say...but its quite addictive - the design element, putting the colours together etc.

I've got the fabrics picked out for a cushion Jo! My completion rate for bigger projects is not great so I'll go with a cushion first. Would love to see pics of your quilt!!!!
