Ok gang, mine is FINISHED!!! I love it! I did make the sash 2" & border 3". Just wanted it just a tad bigger. I had thought of giving this as a Christmas present when we started, but I'm keeping it! It's all mine!! Thanks Judy for the great ride once again. Looking forward to January & the next ride!

Cindy, I knew I would love it finished. I don't blame you for keeping it. Well, I made my corner blocks and laid out 2 different borders. One has the last strip in brown dot like what is in the corner block.The other is done with pumpkin repeated for the last strip. Please give your opinion of which looks best.

I used scraps for the borders and are not neccessarily the width I will use. Please leave your honest opinion . I will only cry for 2 weeks if you hurt my feelings.

Just kidding.

itching to get to sewing on this but waiting for DD because I really want to flip it and use A side of HST blocks next to the star blocks........have to keep remembering this is for DGGD so not my decision alone. Getting lots of housework done and the machine is threaded up and waiting.

The ones posted so far have been totally awesome....What a great group !
