    We had a challenge in my quilt guild to make something with a star or comet on it. I made the shooting star block and put it together in attic windows. There were only 8-10 of us that participated in the competition, but I won first place. I'm so excited. I'm my own worst critic and this recognition meant a lot. I posted a pic before, but thought I'd post it again.

    BTW, it will be in the quilt show April 10-11 in Hannibal. Anyone up for a trip to Missouri?

    CONGRATULATIONS! It looks great!

    I'm working on our guild challenge right now and although I'd love to win, I've seen better. But who knows! Maybe when I tell them it's the first quilt I've ever completed on my own they'll give me the sympathy vote. LOL

    I love the way you set the shooting star in a window. Great idea! You deserve the recognition. Hope it does well in the upcoming show, also.
