    I got the idea from a quilt posted from Champagnolle and Alienquilter suggested to frame it with an attic window.

    There is no pattern. I went with 6" blocks mainly from quilterscache and the bears are machine applique from allstitching.com.
    I put an extra piece of batting under each blanket and I like the puffy effect.
    The stars are a bit crocked but it is the first time I made handapplique and I think it looks charming that way. Sadly the blue top thread from the FMQ came through to the bottom. But the quilt is not washed yet and if i am lucky it will get sucked in a bit if I wash it.
