Stars Like Spaghetti - my version - and !! Finished ( or not ) Friday!

Happy Happy Friday!!!

Oh man it has been a week!! We were in Texas for a little bit! But!! we had planned on warm and sunny, Corpus Christie on the other hand wanted 40's and flipping cold!!! I now have NEW sweatshirts to prove I was places haha!

Today I am going to show you MY finished ( and even bound!) Version of Stars Like Spaghetti!! If you haven't seen it yet and don't want to - close your eyes! Quick!!


If you played a long I hope you had fun, used a few scraps, and now have a Quilt ready for a Veteran!! 


I quilted it with an Star Panto ( and no I won't tell you which one, because i can't remember the name of it, and I am too lazy to go downstairs to look! - but you will still love me!)




My Little girl is pretty good at finding boo boos so I got a little worried when she stared - but she approved!!  This is her on Presidents day .. she is running for President of the ranch - and she is pretty sure she will win!

Stars Like Spaghetti - Strange name I know but if you didn't catch earlier:

"Once upon a Time I was driving in my car - and a song came on. Me, lots of times, hearing what I want to hear - heard *Stars Like Spaghetti* 

and my mind went immediately to a quilt design.  It wasn't until the third time I heard the song that I realized it was actually

Stars Like Confetti.  oops!! That would make a great quilt pattern too... but not this time."

And now it is your turn!!

Let's see what you have been up to!! Link up your direct post and strut your stuff!!!

  3. What a gorgeous quilt Alycia! Haha on the story behind the name. I can't believe Corpus had 40s while we've been having 70s and are supposed to get into the 80s next week. I'm so ready to move farther north!

  15. Great finish, and love the story behind the name! I hope your dog wins the election. I once wrote in my dog's name in a local election when nobody was running against the incumbent. She really would have been a good choice, if the job relied on honesty, loyalty, and love for everyone.
