You did a GREAT job omak! I love the colors and finished quilt! All I can say is WOW to you and cutebuns for finishing so quick and doing a great job as well! I have my blocks done, but have to put it aside to get ready for a machine applique class coming up. I have lots of work to do to get my "homework" done! But I will finish this quilt soon!

Friday, a trip to Spokane for the day .... MAYBE on saturday, I will get a nap .... that is what I miss the most ... the NAP! wahhhhh
and, when I think of all those afternoons at the babysitters that I would resist going to nap! LOL ...

Thank you for the award of the blue ribbon. My first ever for a quilt!

Well, you all know the feeling when you have finally reached this stage!
The only thing I didn't have in my stash when I started was backing fabric, but I won't get to town to buy any until the weekend, so for now this will be it. The colours are a little washed out from my inadequate camera skills but overall I'm pleased with how this turned out.

Omak, I know you mentioned earlier that you were wishing you had gone with a variety of lights, but that yellow really makes your stars stand out. What a great quilt.

So, when you quilt it, how will you go about that?
Good job!
