Default Work in progress a star quilt, dust ruffle and pillow shams

The star center is done, waiting for the fabric to finish the back to arrive. The king sized dust ruffle is complete. (Sense I have learned a few folks always have questions) An already made king sized dust ruffle was purchased, this was the only way I was going to do the project, I have no space for cutting one king sized center, and I wanted it to be the right size. We decided to leave the existing ruffle on and add the batik flowers to the top, now there is an extra ruffle and a nice color theme. The owner can now add pillow shams of sage green which matches her paint. I will be making two pillow shams in the batik color.

How about a picture of that beautiful star quilt spread out? Please?
Using the ready-made dust ruffle is just plain smart!

The star is waiting for more fabric to arrive before it can be finished, so when it is I will share.
