The project had to be at least 24" x 24", and quilted. No other stipulations. Here is my finished entry!

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone.
I think I would have been stumped also, except for a couple of chance things: 1. I had recently aquired several paper-piecing star patterns, so stars were on my mind. 2. The paint chip I got was light yellow, which reinforced the star or sunshine idea. It just grew from there.
It isn't my favorite colors, but that's okay. I'm being stretched!
