After 15 years this UFO is finished!

I took a class and worked on it for three classes, when the class was over i put it away in a box to work on it later, later, later... So now it is finished, it is not exactly like the pattern because the center start is on point in the pattern with more small stack and wack stars in the corners...to much for me so I made it just square. I call it Radiant Star and it is 90" X 90".[ATTACH=CONFIG]580292[/ATTACH]

It's a beautiful quilt top now. I love the colors and the design too. I hope it doesn't take another 15 years to get it quilted!

​Pretty quilt and I bet it feels good to get it done!

mamagrande 09-09-2017 09:30 PM

After I took the picture, I quilted it on the Longarm..needed to get if ready for our Guild quilt show later this month.. It does feel good to have it finished and a bonus is that my DH had not really seen the pattern and now he loves it and shows it off to friends and family who come to the house..:)

It is beautiful and a good reminder that we can take "artistic license" to create lovely quilts that suit our needs.

doloresbeger 09-10-2017 06:51 AM

That turned out really beautiful. I am trying to finish up some UFO's also and get them out of my boxes. Good job.

doloresbeger 09-10-2017 06:56 AM

I should have continued to say that my Mother had started the lone star before she passed away two years ago and I brought it home to finish but haven't done it yet. Your design gives me a good idea how to finish it and set some blocks around it. Thanks for posting it.

railroad 09-10-2017 07:12 AM

What a wonderful finish! It is a treasure. Congrats on your fabulous finish!

Jordan 09-10-2017 08:26 AM

Very pretty quilt and YEAH for you to have a finished quilt. Happy for you-I know the feeling.

red-warrior 09-10-2017 09:12 AM

Very pretty finish....congrats!

feline fanatic 09-10-2017 09:27 AM

What a beauty! I adore S&W stars. They are always so intricate and complex looking. It never ceases to amaze me how the focus fabric can make so many dynamic and interesting designs in the same block. The initial fabric selection is key and while I wouldn't look twice at that fabric in the store, your vision for it in a S&W paid off big time. The chevron border surrounding the center star makes a real impact done in black and pink. And I love your sashing treatment. The solid black and white will make a great canvas for some pretty quilting. congrats on finally getting that UFO top done. Now don't wait another 15 years to quilt it. You need to be enjoying that quilt sooner than that. :thumbup:

Oops, just went back and read that you did finish quilting it. Make sure you post a pic of it all quilted and bound. Can't wait to see what you did with the quilting.

Jingle 09-10-2017 09:28 AM

Very pretty, glad you finished it.

jmoore 09-10-2017 10:34 AM
