Starburst QAYG

I can't find the exact one I used but it's the same pattern as this one. I just did the rainbow color wheel thing when putting together.

The borders around the block were Margarita's idea and she uses wider ones for top, bottom and sides.

thanks so much for the photo, I like both sides.
Someone asked for a picture of the back of the quilt. Also putting the blocks together is done with a sashing of 1 1/8 inch on the backside and 1 3/4 folded in half on the front. Quilt your block sandwich and then on the left side of the block attach the backside sashing right sides together with the folded sashing raw edges together to the front. Sew this with a scant 1/4 inch seam. Grab your next quilted block and sew the back sashing to the next block. Lay this out flat and iron over the front sashing to cover the gap between the blocks and sew this with a top stitch close to the edge. Do the same thing with each block and then attach rows the same way. I'm not good with explaining things so you might not be able to visualize this. I watched a QAYG with Susan Claire and she is great explaining it as she goes along. You can make the sashing as wide as you want within reason. I narrowed this one because I liked the smaller look.
