How the heck did I miss so many posts? This board is always an amazing thing. You never know what will happen next.
What a fabulous star quilt! You never know what wonderful things you ladies are going to come up with next.
Kitsy, I do like those colors. Can't wait to see what you create! I need to dig around to see if I have more red ... I have a second idea bubbling around in my weird little mind.
Sharon, I'm so sorry about your mom. What a heartache.
Yes, thinking about and praying for Robin.
Thanks for the washing machine info. I think I'll try it. Need to get some bags to put the pieces in so I don't make a complete mess.
I thought I'd post a photo of the Hypnosis table runner I made for the Brat's swap ... scary, isn't it?
But the theme IS Summer Fun ...

Thank you all for the nice compliments, it was a pleasure to make it. I love making them for a table topper but Miss K I did put a hanging sleeve on it also. And....it's not a big secret, it's a pattern using the 22.5 squedge ruler. The only trick is you have to have the ruler. I've tried to see if it would "fit" with the degrees on any other ruler but haven't found one yet. Think I'd get in a bunch of trouble if I started cutting out acrylic and making them. So glad you liked it toomanyufo's

Sharon (luvstoquilt) I am so sorry for what you are going through. Hospice is very hard. My FIL went that route and it was a mixed blessing. I am saying a prayer for you and for your Mom. It doesn't matter how old either of you are - this is one of the hardest things.
Linda (elisabrat) you're back! How are you doing with your move? You are so funny and your post really cracked me up... hunga dunga
Bertie I love your method of quilting and being able to ignore the other work. You do sound like you have a ball!
Kitsie that is great fabric and I can't wait tos ee what you do with it!
Jaba and Krystyna I LOVE your quilts! Jaba I never saw one done like that before and it is beautiful! Krystyna the close up shot shows that it is even more awesome than I thought!
This morning I washed and starched the fabrics and actually began cutting them out - this is going to be a fun quilt! I came down to the computer for a lunch break but better get back upstairs and busy.
I am sending you all a virtual pup with a busily wagging tail who wants to play. It's our dog Pip and she always cheers me up. Throw it for me Mom!

And Feeney who is very busy getting hair on my sofa and stinking up the quilt that is supposed to be between him and the sofa ...
