Notice there is still some chalk marks on there, but I will wash it after it is bound and it will be gone....
It looks puffy - but its not, I think that is wierd! I quilted in each block, and when you carry it its not to fluffy.... I guess I like the effect tho!!
Pat showed me how to make a new star *deallie* and I wanted to try it - so this solid block gave me a great place to try it.
See the chalked star? I did that in the borders even with each block.
Weave like quilting in the small border
And another star - just cuz I was so tickled they worked!!! And looked equidistant from each other ( thats a math term, and I am just throwing that in there... it sounded good LOL)
Saturday - I thought I would host a Quilt of Valor progress link up.... so if you have finished a top, quilted something, bought new fabrics, cut something up, made a new block - go ahead and share it.... Give us some inspiration!!

Nice star quilting on the blue blocks. Colors look great with all the pieced blocks.
Super quilt for a wonderful cause. COngratulations on a lovely finish.
I really like the way you used some scrappy pieced blocks and some plain, gives me lots of ideas...the stars are a great touch too!
Great job! I love your quilting choices! Did you free motion or long-arm?
Whoop Whoop!
Awesome quilting...lovin' all your stars.
love the quilting!! Great job with those stars.
Good looking quilt! I love the stars. I'll have to remember that one. Got one backing for my QOV challkenge, but it'll be the end of Feb before I start to get much done on the quilts themselves.
