What a great quilt! Well worth the wait! Sometimes quilts are like a good stew, they need to simmer awhile. LOL, I'm working on son and DIL's quilt that I started almost 12 years ago. DIL saw it on table as I was basting and mentioned how pretty it was. She still likes it after this long! Now to get it quilted. G, the "Farmer's Wife"

WOW!!!
Two of my faves together "Log Cabin" and "Stars"
LOVE IT!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
I'd say it was worth the wait.

beautiful quilt. I'm also noticing you standing there in shorts. I'm jealous, it is 15 - 20 degrees below zero (fahrenheit) wind chill here and that's darn cold!!!! Needless to say, I'm staying indoors and quilting.

Beautiful quilt!!!!

So glad that you finished it!

Love your quilt! Congratulations on the lovely work and beautiful work! Love it!

Wow that is wonderful

That is just gorgeous. Love the idea of the small stars in the joining sashes. Just beautiful.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!

I actually sewed the triangles to the sashing pieces before adding them to the block, quilt as you go. Just treat them as you would any other strip ... it's a bit of planning before hand - but really worth it!

Yes it's shorts weather here in Queensland Australia ... in fact had the airconditioning running at the time of the photo! Temps around 32 degrees c!! :) Pools getting a real workout this summer - not really quilting weather, however I just head for the sewing room and turn down the airconditioning!!

Thank you so much everyone for your very kind and generous posts on Davee's quilt. This forum is such a great source of inspiration and motivation.

That quilt is really beautiful. Geri. my room mate was Geri in the 50s. I have wondered where she is often. She was from Waverly. Is it possible you are that Geri?

I love log cabin, and I've made several of them. I did one with stars like this too and it's beautiful.

WOW, how stunning!!! What a masculine quilt! I have not heard of a quilt as you go log cabin. I guess I will have to do some research to find the pattern. Lovely choice of color, and a job VERY WELL DONE. Barb
