mom-6 great way to go with it. you'll get it done in no time. when I started this long journey of quilting, I started to hand quilt, at about 10, I was rigging up this way of quilting. never knew what it was called, but it worked for me.
Peg- really love the sparkle.
I don't think mine looks to good. I used a lot of ugly fabrics I had and a lot of different scraps. We'll see. I have a lot of red pin dot i'm thinking of using as the bars. I think i'll omit the stars because i'm so far behind and just put in setting stones. I've seen a few done that way and it looks ok. this is a donation quilt. I need to ctch up with the rest of the world. Darn flu put me way behind. love the photos, keep 'em coming.

can someone tell me, my blocks are a bit off 12 1/2-12 3/4 if I do the stars, will it look ok, or is it too far of to match up. I figured just the blocks between would look better. any opinions? thanks in advance

PeginCO, Love that B&W outer border. Great looking quilt.
Lynnie, Wish I could help. I don't have any ideas how to adjust the sashing to accommodate the different size blocks. It does seem like the stars would have trouble lining up.

I love seeing everyone's work--I have fallen behind! My queen cat, Olive, has been ill for several weeks--she has a feeding tube--so lately, all I've been doing is feeding her every few hours when I'm not at work. That and trying to fit in a nap when I can. I know better than to try to sew when I'm tired and distracted--nothing ever turns out well. I will get back to the quilt--I like the way it is shaping up.

All of the quilts are looking great! Love how they are all different and all look so pretty! What a wonderful pattern. Thank you Judy for the hard work and great clues. I have thoroughly enjoyed it! Hoping to finish piecing mine on Thursday as I need to sit with my Dad tomorrow. Happy with the way it's turning out. Should be a long twin size.
