I pieced this top years ago as a class sample, and I finally got it quilted. It will be for sale in my etsy shop eventually, but for now it's in my livingroom because it matches the paint I used on the trim in there! :lol: I have to finish editing the rest of the pictures and write the sales spiel, and then I will get it listed for sale.

Very nice. It would be hard to get rid of it after putting it up and seeing how nice it matches your room.

GORGEOUS!!!!! I love your color choices, and your work (as always!) is terrific!! I keep thinking I need to do a lone star, but then I find something else I "just have to try" first. (I think I am a bit cowardly about trying the lone star.... maybe I will someday grow up and be brave enough to try it. hehehe)

Cathe, I love the quilt! I'm sure it will sell quickly. I love the color choices and your workmanship. Very beautiful!

Once again simply stunning Cathe, I'm impressed. Was it done with the strip-pieced method? I've seen the Lone star done several ways and all seem equally challenging; one day perhaps I’ll feel my skills up to trying one.

I just got a copy of Jan Krentz's "Lone Star Quilts and Beyond" which only makes me appreciate the art even more. Bravo!!! :thumbup:

"but for now it's in my livingroom because it matches the paint I used on the trim in there!" Gosh then, you might have to just make another when it sells! :D

Yes - it's the four-color "reverse repeat" technique. I think that's what it was called. The important thing with this pattern is to stop and square up at every single step.
