My quilt entry

Today is the last day to enter a quilt in Amy's on-line festival at Parkcitygirl
My quilt is this one:
The pattern, Ships in the Night is from McCall's Quilting October 2005 issue, designed by Kelly Corbridge. I had always wanted to make on Ocean waves quilt. I used all solid "Amish" colors from my stash for this quilt and I used the product 'triangles on a roll' to make the 485 1/2 square triangles. It finished 68" x 82". I started this quilt in October of 2005, according to my notes that I keep, probably right after I got the magazine. But I didn't quilt it until March of this year. The feathers I used in the outside border are from the book Hooked on Feathers by Sally Terry. This was the 1st quilt I used them on. I think it turned out pretty nice.
