    My younger sons (twins) asked if I could make them a quilt that is really warm. I had them pick out their colors they wanted. Then for warmth they asked if I could put fleece on the back. I love star quilts so that is what I went with for the design. Vi Colomn from here in SD teaches this class "The no pattern Star". I like how they turned out, and they are quite warm and an sure they will enjoy them this coming winter.

    Thank you,Yes, I was very unsure at first using the fleece on a long arm, but one piece of advice I was given is to run the stretchest of the material sideways and not up and down.
    They really like the warmth and softness from it too.

    Absolutely beautiful! I assume this is considered a Lakota Star Quilt?
