I'm having a clear out as we're moving house so I have a pile of mags I don't want/need anymore.

Details are on my blog

Can't really help on your mags but wanted to ask - where did you get the space fabric. Been trying to track some down for the last two years and obviously not looking in right place!

movingintothefuture - the space quilt was made from remnants of a couple of duvet covers.

God those quilts are gorgeous.

How long does it take you to finish one of those? If you don't mind me asking.

TwoIfBySea - do you mean the blue square ones? It probably took longer to cut the squares than make!!

Once it was laid out I chain pieced it which speeded up the process immensely. The backing was all in one piece and there was no binding to add because of how I how I sewed it together. The quilting was pretty simple as well as I just went down the diagonals

You are making this sound very easy, I have my suspicions that I will not find it so! grin
