    Christine, that is just gorgeous! I love your color selection. Orange and aqua look so cool together. Your quilt has a light, summery look to it. Nice job!

    What wonderful finishes by all... Toverly and Christine, your quilts look so different just by changing a couple of colors and both are great. I’m not a “green” person but it works well in this pattern. Congratulations on fabulous finishes.

    Love the yellow stars in your quilt Christine. Great job changing up the colors. Looks wonderful.

    Christine, love your Good Fortune. Those yellow/gold spinning stars gives the whole quilt a spring feel to it.

    Christine, that is so pretty and happy!

    I think I'm burning out trying to do two mystery quilts at once (I knew it was a dumb idea). I'm trying to get the bright version to the bag-able stage so I can concentrate on finishing the other one. Those quarter star units are daunting and have me questioning my piecing skills.

    I hear you, Lisa. I thought I was doing a pretty good job with my units, but putting them together is showing how imperfect they are. Now I am subscribing to the philosophy of "close enough."

    I went with "close enough" also audsgirl. I am happy with the results. I have a friend suffering over those points. For me it's about fun not perfection. This is a great quilt but not for a quilt show.

    Everyone...your finished tops look lovely!
    Don't stress about the points as per Bonnie!

    I always say, Done is better than Perfect!

    Stitch on!!!
