Sapphire Stars Revisited

My January One Monthly Goal was to piece my Sapphire Stars - Kevin the Quilter Mystery quilt.

and I did   ( thank you, thank you very much)

And this last month!!! I finally got it quilted ;-) Oh ya.... you can applaud now


Bless my heart - I pawned the binding off on another Quilt of Valor quilter - cuz she can't say No - so in my book.... IT IS FINISHED -- Whoot Whoot!!



It's a big Quilt!
My batting is only 90 inches long, so I had to piece batting to make it long enough ;-)





I quilted an all over on it 



Ta -da!
One more quilt ready to find it's forever home 



PS - If you are looking for some fabric deals.... I have started cleaning out my studio ( just a little bit) and... mostly you know - I have boys, and mostly, I make Quilts of Valor... so some of this yummy fabric will never make it into my quilts.... so!!  I a starting to list things on Ebay.....

Hi Alycia,
What a nice finish! This is lovely and it looks so darn big. I can see why you had to piece some batting to make it fit. I would call it finished as well! ~smile~ Roseanne

That's a beauty! Will have to check out one of his mysteries in the future. Lucky you to have a quilt binder on call!

Your Sapphire Stars version is lovely! I see you grouped the red/yellow corners like me. I think it looks more cohesive that way. My version is close to being ready for longarming.
