Oh that is just so awesome you have to give it to her!!! She will show it to all her new friends in college and every day it will help to give her the 'home base' she needs to face all her new responsibilities and challenges.

This is the first time I've posted any of my work -- I hope you like it
I wanted to learn paper-piecing so I found a bunch of "star" patterns (mostly at Quilters Cache) and just kept going. I love the rainbow brightness of the quilt. I'm trying to decide if I should sash them with a dark blue (like nighttime), or black (to make them really pop), or use a variety of the solids I used in the star blocks.
This was going to be a graduation gift for one of my nieces who has rec'd a scholarship to play Div A Soccer in college (she's our "star"), but I love it so much, I may not be able to part with it!
