This was a fun retreat. I like brights so used fabric that I already had and cut my own 2.5 inch strips. Others used a jelly roll and each of their stars came out different and were lovely.

I have not been on many retreats, but the woman who has organized these two makes it a lot of fun and relaxing.

You did a good job.Thats so pretty

Beautiful!

Oh that's beautiful!!!
Nice job!!!

Very pretty. Great job.

You did a fantastic job. It looks wonderful.

I love your quilt. The lone star is on my to do list.

Love it - the colors are so nice - good job. You are an inspiration for the rest of us

I love it. I have one ready to go. Well sort of. LOL

Turned out beautiful!!! Lone Star is on my to-do list. Was it hard to do?

So pretty, I just love all of the lone star quilts.

Surprisingly it wasn't hard to do. I was pretty tenuous when I started, but it made sense shortly and then they went together more quickly. I would encourage you go try one. It was actually quite fun.

Wow, that is very pretty!!

Thank you all for the encouraging comments. The colors are actually brighter and richer in tone, but pics don't always post true to color (smile). I appreciate your looking.

Really nice! The border really goes well with the blocks, I really like it!

Perfect points! Very nice work. Is that a dulcimer you are playing?

Oh my, so pretty. I love your colors. One of my favorite patterns. Great job.

your first and your best!! they are gorgeous!!!

Wow! Beautiful! You do such nice work.

Really, really nice. I have never attempted one because I was told that when you make one, you will never make another one, that is why it is called 'the lone star'. Maybe
I will put it on my to do list since you didn't think it was that hard.

looks like a pro did it to me! beautiful!

Beautiful!

Great job! I haven't tackled stars yet, it will be a while.

Oh, wow! That wonderful!

Beautiful quilt. You did a wonderful job on it. Huggies, Fay

sound like fun i love retreats

Great quilt!

Yes, that is a dulcimer I made while visiting a friend in Arkansas. Thanks for asking.

Beautiful!

You did a beautiful job on this quilt :D:D:D

Very pretty!

I just love your quilt!!!!! It speaks to me,,,,,what? you want to come to my house? Okay,,,,well you better tell Murphy,,,she might not like that idea. But I could always help you sneak out!!!! LOL Lovely quilt!!!

Murphy, that's a really lovely quilt. The colors work so nicely together. Good job on the setting squares and triangles. Did you do the quilting as well?

I used to make the single giant lone star quilts for a living and believe me, after you have knocked a couple of them out you can just about do it in your sleep. They are not hard to do once you get the hang of putting your strips together folks so I encourage you all to try doing one!

I sent it out for quilting as it is quite large and I don't have the ability to handle large quilts (smile). I agree that once you get the hang of how the strips go together it goes along very well.

Wow it's really beautiful!

Trisha (from quilt) - I would love to live with you, but it is so warm and cozy here I believe I will stay awhile. Thanks, tho, for wanting me :thumbup:

AWESOME,GREAT LOOKING QUILT.

Very Pretty!

It is very pretty and I love the colours you used.

Love the brights! The Lone Star is also on my 'to-do' list!
