I cut out hundreds of diamonds back in 1974, and sewed some into stars.They sat in a box until two years ago. I joined a quilting guild a few years ago, and finally got it out and finished it for my 32 year old daughter for Christmas. I did "Quilt as You Go" method going with info from the Gourmet Quilter. The four corners are hearts with various machine embroidery stitches. I am so glad it is done.

Your stars are lovely! So glad to see another ( old) UFO finished up -- they are always so worth it when finished! Makes me wonder why it takes us so long sometimes.
I bet your daughter is �� thrilled

For being started in the 70s, the colors and fabrics really work in this setting. Kudos for finishing (and yes, for probably holding the record of longest-held UFO-finally-finished).
