    I have had several people ask for a larger picture of my avatar. The title of this quilt is reach for the stars and it is a generous King size. I personally think a better name for it is Lone Star on Steriods! I worked on this for about 3 months on and off. I quilted it on a Nolting longarm machine at my favorite quilt shop. She gives classes and when you have a liscense to drive the longarm She rents time by the hour. Most of the fabrics in this are from Kansas troubles. Hope you enjoy it. The second one is one of my favorites. Its name is the hollow cube.

    Both are fabulous!!!! Have done a king lone star but the cubes are still on my list. Not one as large as you have, maybe a wallhanging would satisfy.
