So I made up my mind to do it! *laugh* I would not have been able to do it without Jan Krentz's DVD. I highly recommend it!
    And there is a reason that there isn't a closeup picture of the actual quilting...*sigh*
    I had been admiring your avatar and now to see the finished results. It's almost like a celebration quilt for you ... and now onwards to more quilts, and continued improved health!

    You have me curious about the cultural symbolism of the 8-pointed stars. Care to Share? Please? and Thanks!

    I was just thinking ... if this was your first.
    What challenge are you going to put yourself to, for your second quilt? :)

    That is very pretty. I think you started in the deep end. I hope things are going better for you now. {{{Hugs}}}}
