I stretched it over foam core and put a nice finished back on it. I wrote an article on how to do this for CQMagOnline a few years ago...you can find that here.
So here we have it....
I hope Andy and his girl both like it...and that they enjoy plenty more love by the moon....;-)Thanks for your encouragement and suggestions, too! Landscape quilts are so fun....

Incredible!
It's really lovely. I can't imagine anyone who loves the moon or loves loving by the moon who wouldn't love this moon. I'm sure Andy and his girlfriend will be...dare I say...over the moon when they see it! And now they can love by the moon all day long since the moon will always be out...of course, the moon really is always out of course...which means she's really living by the sun AND the moon but I shouldn't get so technical...
What do you want, Andy, do you want the moon? Well just say so and Allie will throw a lasso around it and pull it down for you...
And that, my dear, is a quote from It's a Wonderful Life...in the spirit of the season as well as the moon.
Signing off so I won't take up any more of your blog space...
What a nice!!!! Great work, Allie. A super gift, indeed.
What a sweet piece!
A lovely piece. I'm sure they'll treasure it always.
Oh man, you cranked that out fast! You must be a driven personality.
It is wonderful!
It is a lovely work of art and love. I loved seeing it come together. May Andy and his lady have lots of years to love each other.
I love the beaded lettering and am wondering what size of beads you used. I am really going to have to try that...
And the 3D effect is lovely...

So simple and yet so beautiful. I love the layered shoreline. Must have been a fun change from the floral themes.
This truly has FEELING - atmosphere, beauty, and all you wanted to achieve with it!! What a treasure you have created, once again.
Wow!!! It is gorgeous!!
Ohhh! That's a beauty! Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog! Vivki is special one and I am always tickled when she lists me - but you are the first person who ever told me that you came from her blog to mine! I see we share Washington as our home too !
This is so pretty! Way to go. :)
I can just imagine how thrilled your nephew is going to be with this. A true work of art. It's amazing how you can create both perspective and depth with a few colors and seams. Just mahvelous!!
Hugs, Cat
This turned out great!!! I am impressed with how it was done with so much beauty and creativity - under pressure and a time constraint!
I love the way this developed Allie and I am super impressed at how quickly you did it.
I really like the quote "Live by the sun and love by the moon"
Great job Allie. They will love it. You made the point in a very special way. I like the lettering along the side and on the bottom.

Excellent work, Allie. I love how you kept it simple. They will surely love it...and you for doing it for them.
How Pretty!
This is prety cool. Great job!
let us know what she says after she receives it.
Oh I love it! What a lovely piece. You will have to let us know how the girlfriend liked it. There's no doubt in my mind she will LOVE it and Andy will score major points!!
What a lovely gift you've designed, Allie! May sun, moon and stars rejoice with Andy and his girlfriend this Christmas.
What a beautiful piece! I especially like the variety of fabrics you used in the foreground.
Just beautiful! Simple, yet elegant and not over the top.
What a sweet aunt you are!
