Ruby the Quilter

It is going to be beautiful when it is finished. Great job.

I love your colors. I have actually made 2 of these. I also reached the point where 'close' was good enough on the points. I never thought about putting it on the floor and then checking to see if the points bothered me. I laughing follow the rule of the galloping horse. Hang the quilt on the wall. Ride by on a galloping horse. If you can't see the problem there is no need to fix it. Hee! Hee!.

Great work!! What works for me when I am doing this pattern is to put a pin right through the point the two seams cross, and then stitch exactly over that point. It works every time!

Okay...I am now to the point of sewing everything together. I may wait a few days!

Oh, I love it! Those are my colors!

Yellow Bird

Okay, almost there..spray basted and sandwiched!

Not perfect, but I'm no longer going to stress about it! I put it aside for months while I tried to figure out how I was going to get this together properly. This is as good as it will get before quilting.

What is your finsihed size? My daughter wants me to make one for her queen size...I am scared to even begin!!

I have a strip pieced lone star quilt in progress. Or maybe not. I have a problem because I cut the all 45 degree the same way, and I guess I should have cut half of them on the reverse 45 degrees. I don't know.

Yellow Bird

I used the Angel Fire directions...60 degree cut of the strata.

The current size is approximately 69" square...

I don't think so. I just finished a lone star - cut everything the same way, sewed 8 identical points, and ta da! Keep going - I bet it will work out.

It looks lovely!

I've made 2 lone stars (actually, 3, if you count a miniature I did to try to get my nerve up for the first big one).
