Starry Beginnnings
 

I just finished this quilt, with lots of suggestions and input from some of the forum members here. I was playing with some leftover strips from an earlier project and made 5 star points. After some thought, this was the plan I came up with to use those.

I quilted a border on two sides, leaving the other two truncated, and continued the "unfinished" concept by binding the two bordered sides and finishing the other two sides with a facing.[ATTACH=CONFIG]570547[/ATTACH]

Here is a closeup of the border and some of the background fill.

This is so beautiful in every way!

Nicely done! So I see you did a lot of straight line quilting and you mentioned in your original post you were "ruler averse". So did you freehand all those straight lines? If so FANTASTIC job!!!!!

That is an award-winning quilt, for sure! Just beautiful.

WOWEE - how beautiful. You did a fabulous job!

Just stunning!!!!!
