During the quilt along I plan on making a scrappy version using multiple shades of Kona Cotton! I’m hoping for it to look something like this:

  1. How to download the larger Starlight Mountain quilt?

    1. You can view the suggested layouts for the larger sizes in the NQC Block Challenge group or in my Happy Cloud Creations Quilt Along group. These are listed in the ‘photos’ section and in the ‘files’ sections of the group. I hope you enjoy making this quilt!

  2. Andrea is there another link to d/l the coloring sheet and fabric requirements. The NQC is behaving badly again.

    1. After you enter your email and click join, it will take you to a new page. At the top of this page it has a blue box that says Download. Whey you click this is should download it to your computer. Let me know if you are still having problems.
