Today was my first "Old Fashion Star" class with Cindy Willaims (The Math Whisper). Oh my gosh!!! I have taken classes with her before but she just keeps getting better! This is my center medalion - feathered star. Rows are loose. Too tired to finish tonight. The next round is a light gray green with trees and reindeer. My goal is to have Christmas quilts for both extra bedrooms... may not finish the 2nd this year.

Bug, nice fussy cut center! That's ambitious, two Christmas quilts plus everything else you are sewing/doing. Keep your goal to one, then it will be a pleasant surprise to yourself if you do more.
I'm glad if the album will be useful to you all. :-)

Here is a sneak peak at Bugaroo's center. And that is not the lighting, I used ombre fabric.
I really like turning on point, but didn't want to actually turn the center so did a mock turning instead.

Macybaby, I love it!! I was hoping that someone would add to the center... I just didn't like the square shape I had. Now it looks like a more complicated medallion. And I would never have thought of light blue. That is just one of the things I enjoy with this round robin -- different ideas coming together.
QuiltNan, the name is The Old Fashion Star. Cindy is 71 and her mom is 92 and still quilting!! They both live in Franklin, NC. Her mom sometimes calls during class just to check on how things are going. Below is Cindy's examples of this quilt she designed. She makes a quilt, then makes the pattern, makes another quilt using the pattern, then writes the book! She's published several as well as technique books. I am starting her monthly class, Fab15, next week. In it she teaches one technique each month and gives homework to practice... practice is making another quilt called Evergreen.
