Default Dereck Lockwood's Celestial Garden in Oranges Finished

I posted this as a flimsy under Bold, Bright, and Busy. It has now been hand quilted and bound--so ta da, I present the finished quilt laying on the floor.

Shows the paper piecing and part of the center star.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]438308[/ATTACH]This shows the lily in the setting triangle and part of the lovely hand quilting that was done. She quilted this whole thing in under three weeks.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]438309[/ATTACH]This shows the corner of the whole center and more of the lovely feathers that were quilted by the Amish lady. I really like Shadow Play. It shows such depth of color without having too much contrast, lights and mediums and darks which is what I used for the backgrounds of the paper pieced blocks and the border..

[ATTACH=CONFIG]438310[/ATTACH]She used curving leaf-like quilting around the angular flowers.

The design wall is full of quilt projects that have a time frame so can't be taken down now so this is the best photo I could get of the whole quilt. I hope you are all looking forward to a wonderful fall weekend and happy quilting!

Not sure why this moved the attachments above the pictures and the accompanying narratives were moved as well. I will hit post again and see what happens this time.

Bummers, even lost part of the pictures, so I will try again....[ATTACH=CONFIG]438339[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]438340[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]438341[/ATTACH]Sorry this is so messed up. It hasn't happened to me before so don't know how to fix this. Anyway, I hope you like my first lonestar with paper-piecing attempt.
