    Default Dark Side of the Moon

    I wanted to share with you a new quilt I just finished. Completed the quilting and got the binding on last night and got it washed and ready to gift today. This is a new, soon to be released, pattern by Elizabeth of Of, Fransson called Solar Eclipse. Doing mine in batiks with the black batik, I decided this was Dark Side of the Moon - isn't there always a dark side during a solar eclipse?
    The blocks are 16" square, quilt is 64 x 64.
    Thanks for looking!

    The back: was hoping the quilting would show up more in the picture. I used variegated thread.

    What a striking quilt. I can see several possibilities for setting out the design.
