Here's pictures of my 9 month project that turned into a year and half. But now is finally finished. The pattern is the old traditional Ohio Star with the main focus fabric an autumn motif set together with black and a golden tan. It is machine pieced and hand quilted. Each individual section that makes up the big block has a star quilted in it and the sashing strips has a row of small stars. What do you think? I hope it was worth the time. Thanks for looking.

Thank you. Yes, it is mine to keep for awhile anyway. I have several that will probably go to my daughters some day. I just want to know they will be well cared for.

Thanks everyone. The fabric choice was an accident. A friend had been to a garage sale and found this and new I would find a use for it. I just put the black and tan with it. I usually don't choose the autumn colors but I think it turned out to be one of the prettiest ones I've made. Thank you again for all your nice comments. Now, I've got to choose another top to finish.
