    Cindy...........your quilt #1 has turned out really pretty. I love the color's & fabric's that have been used, in putting this one together. Now I am anxious to see the other two, when you get them done!! I am sad to hear that DGS has bowed out, I was really pulling for him to finish. That's how it goes though!! Thank you for sharing & letting us know that you are still alive!!

    SunlitenSmiles the quilt is very pretty. SO is the sunshine where you took the picture. No way I could take a picture in the park today. It was 68 and rainy yesterday morning here. Today it is 20 and 50 mile and hour winds. Cindy love your quilt. I just love how they are all the same pattern and no 2 look anything alike. I will have to join another mystery train. This one is already claimed. I just need to quilt it. I am going to donate it to the school carnival. Hopefully it will bring in some good money.

    Default My quilt top is done... now how wondering how to quilt it?? Suggestions

    This turned out to be a very large king top, trying to decide how I should quilt it, was just gonna put a layer of flannel in the middle rather than batting so that I could use it as a summer quit....

    More gorgeous quilts! And as has been mentioned repeatedly, each one very different from the rest. May try this in different size blocks to use up smaller scraps of which I have many more than I did the larger ones. Of course that will require more blocks, a good thing in this instance.

Oh well... I think my youngest son is going to receive this as his Christmas present this year. He really likes it, as do I. Thank you Judy for this train ride, it's been a lot of fun for me. I'll post this pic over in the picture section for others on the board to view there.
    Stunning, the black stars make this quilt pop.
