    Will try this again. Sent it off and it never came through so hopefully it won't come through twice but here goes. The center star is a "no Y seams block" that was taught in a class at my quilt chapter meeting using scraps. Liked it so much that decided to enlarge it out for my 11 year old grandson Michael. Used EQ7 and built the quilt out and did "quilt as you go Patty style." It is a machine pieced and a combination of machine and hand quilting. The sig tag is in the lower right hand corner star on the front of the quilt made using my Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0 machine. The quilt is between a twin comforter and twin spread size. Since I hand quit polyester batting is used. I don't use a hoop or frame as I like my quilts to puff a bit and after it is washed it will puff nicely.
