Very nice.

Something else that works is putting mustard on the burn. Got that from "peoplespharmacy.com".

What a beautiful quilt it will be! Love the stars. They are one of my favorites!
The colors are gorgeous! I'm not good at doing an on point layout. But I love to see others!

Can't wait to see it done! I have to stand on the step stool when I take pics of my stuff on my table. Can't get a good enough angle any other way. Just be sure you don't fall off the coffee table!!

That would just add insult to injury wouldn't it! LOL

The finger is much better this morning, I was worried it would get the tight feeling and not want to bend, but it's perfectly usable. *whew*

I keep repeating myself, I'm REALLY pleased with how this is coming together. It's the straightest quilt I've ever done, it's sitting really flat and just going together beautifully. I put the pattern into EQ, and have been cutting the borders exactly at what the print out says, and they fit! I was out by less than 1/8th on one side, and the other sides were perfect.

It's a fluke, of course! LOL
