Thank you! What a great site. I'm glad I saw yours first, I like more than the picture on the web site. Looking forward to making up some fabric I have been saving for a lone star. Thanks again.
Here is the site I had purchased mine from a couple of years ago, be sure and go to page 2 that is where it is.They still list all of her patterns, This one is actually called ULS2. Let me know if you can't get it from their and will help find another. Might be able to go directly to Karen Stone's site too and find it.

My quilt in my AVaTar is a simple charm quilt I made from 4' SQUARES in the 9 patch pattern. Alternating lights and darks.
It is husband's new quilt to keep him warn in Alaska when he returns in a few weeks. It gets cold up there out on the islands where the wind, rain, sleet and snow come down most days and then the sun usually makes an appearance.

Wow, now that's what I call a scrap masterpiece.

I love seeing all these quilts and the stories that go with them. Mine is just a crib quilt. My DIL requested the quilt for her baby would be with a rainbow theme. I couldn't come up with any brilliant ideas, but thought I would try to incorporate rainbow colors rather than try to make rainbow shapes. I machine pieced and hand quilted it. The front is flannel and the back is cotton. I sure enjoyed watching it come together.

I only recently changed mine and now it's a top I just finished and am going to quilt SOON! It's my own original design based on Margaret Miller's Block Bender technique and once it's quilted it will be for sale - if I can bear to part with it! Usually I'm sick of looking at a piece by the time I've finished it and am glad when it's sold and out of here, but this one, I never tire of looking at!
