    I am working on one of the Bali Wedding stars right now. The directions make it sound a lot more complicated than what it is to actually do the pieces. It is going together easier than my double wedding ring quilt that I ordered from Fons and Porter. The paper piecing helps to keep your block stabilized while you are sewing it together. Plus I bought one of the Curve Master attachment foot to use to sew together curved pieces and between the two the pieces are going together nicely. I hope to have mine completed sometime before summer. It just depends on how much time I have to piece between doing longarm quilting for customers. If you can buy the pattern/directions without any of the fabric that is what I would suggest. Or Keepsake Quilting has the Bali Bedrunner pattern to make a 30 x 104 cover which includes the paper piece pattern, directions and the fabric for the background.

    Would love to see pictures of this when you are finished.

    I just signed up to take the class with Judy Niemeyer next month at a LQS. I am looking forward to doing it. I am going to use Bali Pops to make it. She lists them as option in the pattern booklet. I also plan to use the flying geese border.

    I went to the St George quilt show over the weekend and talked to a gal who just received her certification as a teacher and she made the Bali Wedding Star with that border. She says it's beautiful and it lays better on the bed, since it has square corners. I plan to make the 8 x 8 with the borders. She said it will fit a king bed. I am excited.

    Judy also samples on her website that her students have made. People have made them with different colors. The website is: www.quiltworx.com.

    OH WOW, and I'm too impatient to do a double Wedding Ring, I'd never get more than one block of this done. But it shore is lovely.

    I have the pattern and am collecting fabric now. I'm not sure when I will get started. It's a stunning quilt.

    I have the pattern & will be taking the class this summer to do it. Right now I'm just about finished with Judy's Glacier Star. Did the Christmas table topper in November. Love her style of paper piecing it is a lot of fun
