*gulp* I've been doing this for a little while, and there are so many different patterns that I haven't even attempted something with points until now.

I've played with EQ and made a dozen things on the computer. First attempt in real life.

:) Not too bad, even if I do say so myself.

wow love the look. I think real life is great. Turn more of those computer designs into real.

Arizona Sunrises 03-28-2011 07:05 PM

Thank you, ladies. I want to make sure I clarify that this isn't my first quilt attempt IRL...just my first attempt at non-squared and easy things. :lol: Now if I could just get past my fear of FMQ, I'd be golden.

wolph33 03-28-2011 07:08 PM

Love this!!!! Great job!! :P

Texasjunebug 03-28-2011 07:46 PM

That is fine fabric! When I get past squares and rectangles, I'll try better fabric to get better points. Your block is beautiful and looks perfect! Color coordination is professional looking.

Murphy 03-28-2011 07:46 PM

Thanks again for the compliments.

NikkiLu - I will be doing more of the same, but in different color combos. I have quite a few batik scraps in my stash from past projects, and should have enough for at least a lap quilt.

suebee - I'm in the Valley. I took the avatar pic in 2005 before I relocated here, and I just thought it was pretty. :) I'd love to live up there though.

I'm still playing with EQ, but I'm thinking something similar to the attached star as a center medallion. On point. Spiky, pointy center border. Random stars of different design floating outside it. Regular border....with spiky things in each corner and along the center of each side.

EDIT: The colors will obviously be different. :D I was playing with the pattern and grabbed the wrong color combo as a jpg.
