I had JUST announced my intentions to my quilting buddies that after the holidays, I *am* going to finish quilting all the tops that I have piled up and then I *am* going to finish the UFOs that are stacked up. The accumulation of partially finished projects has now reached the level that is driving me to distraction. Getting them completed will feel sooooo good!
But then ... ::sigh:: .... I ran across the blog, "Thought and Found" and the newly started Quilt-a-Long, "Oh My Stars". There is only one star, a sawtooth star, but the colors and arrangement of her sample are simply wonderful! I feel myself being sucked in. (Patti ... don't you DARE start giggling at me!)
Now, eventhough I just love, love, love her colors, they aren't what I have in my stash and/or scraps, so my quilt will look distinctly different from hers. BUT the layout will be the same ... and that is simply visually attractive! She did a wonderful job in the placement of the different sized stars.
So, check out Oh My Stars quilt a long .... and join the fun. You know you want to. :-)

Arrrggghhhh...You are mean. Cruel, I say!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing quilt!!
I wonder if I can squeeze this into my schedule....
=)
Amy: you know you can. You are amazing and can shoehorn another project into the mix. :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Amy, you are mean and cruel. Geez, that is a really nice quilt. Into the old scrap basket I go ................. *s*
ReplyDeleteRobin ... you know you want to.
ReplyDeleteCome, let us commiserate together. :-)
Is it going to be all-purple stars for your favorite middle daughter? You know you want to (and will probably have the stash when Jane Austen is done!).
ReplyDeleteNo, Lisa. This will NOT be purple. You already HAVE lots of purple quilts and pillows and placemats. I know you feel you do not have enough but this one will NOT be purple. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, I do need to make two quilts for the granddaughters. It is very pretty. I may have to send you one of the quilts I need to get quilted. Yea, I signed up for it.
ReplyDeleteLois: there certainly will be room on the longarm for your Stars quilt. :-)
ReplyDeleteThankfully, I only have 1 UFO and it is killing me to not have it finished! Love the stars quilt!
