I added some paint to the moon and while it dried, I finished the 3 flowers in the triangle areas of the grey and purple piece. Also, I did 2 more feathers.
I wanted to get back to the moon/planet piece as it is on my mind. I'm having trouble to express what I envision. I added Angelina fiber around the moon, stitched it with free motion then added some tulle. I stitched it and started adding a bit of free motion stitching when I ran out of bobbin thread. It was time to take a break anyway.
I'm not sure about the Angelina fiber. I have some scraps of sparkly white tulle that I think might work but none are big enough. I'm hoping I'll have time to look for some on our way to the wedding Saturday.
I'm linking to WIP Wednesday at the Needle and Thread Network.

I do like tulle but I've never worked with angelina fibre. Feathers are looking good!
Love the colors in the moon planet piece Holly. Thanks for commenting on the quilt; it is a commissioned piece. I like it too.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I've worked with both angelina fibre and film...a little goes a long way! You might try Shiva (R) PaintStiks to get the iridescence you want with a bit more control.
Somehow, though, I see a 'moon' behind the one you have identified...are you planning on doing something else to highlight it too?
Congratulations on all the weddings!
Best,
