Your quilts are wonderful. I especially like the 50 stars. Your coloring is so nice with the little surprises here and there add lot of interest.

Usually hand stitching isn't too bad but two king sized just a couple weeks apart was difficult.

Oh my gosh those quilts are stunning! I also have trouble machine binding both sides of a quilt. One side never looks right so I do it by hand. I just tried a decorative stitch and I had to rip it out UGH Congratulations on your gorgeous quilts!
