Here is ‘Neptune’s Dream‘. The finished size is 21″ x 41″.
It will be one of my art quilts included in an upcoming exhibit ‘The Planets Within: A Fibre Cosmology‘ at Il Museo, this summer at the Italian Cultural Centre in Vancouver.
I started this art quilt in April. I posted about the fabric selection and fusing process here. https://www.terryaskeartquilts.com/Studio/2025/04/19/taking-shape-on-my-design-wall-2025-04-19/
I set it aside for a month or so while I travelled and worked on other projects. When I returned to it a couple of weeks ago, the next step was to quilt contour lines on the felt-backed planet.
I drew the contour lines on a circle of freezer paper, then cut it apart into strips. I quilted next to the edges of the strips. Below is the contour quilting in progress, quilting completed (front view) and quilting completed (back).
After completing the planet, I attached it to the starry background. I’m thrilled with the finished piece.

Thanks for stopping by.
I’m linking up with Nina-Marie’s Off the Wall Friday, where you’ll find many other creative and inspirational projects.
