That is absolutely stunning!!!! Great job! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks Izy! XO

Thank you N2! I like your quilt in your profile pic. My next quilt is going to be Judy Neimeyer's 80x80, paper pieced Wedding Star. I saw it in person at Quilters Destination and it is beautiful. It is another batik quilt (which I love). With the exception of the background, you can use Bali Pops. I'm agonizing over fabric choices because it would be nice to have 2 1/2 strips already cut, but there are fabrics I like and dislike with each color category. I make myself kinda "nutso" agonizing over fabric choices. LOL

Thank you so much Sheree for commenting on my avatar. It looks big but actually the pcs are only 3/4 inch wide! All done by hand; the pcing, applique and quilting ITD. I believe I've seen that Wedding Star b4. It's breathtaking and with Bali it'll be wonderful! Know what you mean about agonizing over fabric choices - I spend more time over selecting border and binding fabrics than necessary. But you know what, it's not wasted time! That's how important it is, especially to the artist inside!! :wink:

OMG N2! All done by hand? It took me 5 years to make nine quilts!

Very beautiful, love the intricate design....I am just hoping by absorbing all these amazing pics everyone posts, my skills will improve!

Me too!

I like you design, very different, & the colors are subtle together.

:shock: That is some fancy piecing!!! AWESOME Work :D :D :D

Thank you for your comments. McCommas Beauty is 85x65. And again, I have no idea how long it took to make. With the exception of the baby quilt, I did all these before having my back re-built last year. I was able to sit for hours at a time then. Now it's like 30 minutes! I would say 9 quilts in five years, probably six months.
