M-Fay, I know that there is quite a time difference between your home and mine in So. California...but your camera thinks it is months!

OMGoodness, I catch my breath with every new picture posted! I just love the all-scrappies...and the more traditional darks/lights...and the variations, Moonrise and Siodach (pardon me while I lift my jaw off the floor!!!). I'm just blown away. Fabulous quilts, Everyone! Judy, your intuition was right-on...everyone of these is just wonderful. Thank you!

Jolo, I think it is amazing that you are 82 and on the quilting board and able to post pictures and everything. My mom is 86 and doesn't have anything to do with the computer. I can't wait to see your new quilt after you get it together!
I just LOVE all the quilts from Judy's awesome pattern!! It would be impossible to choose a favorite.
I may have gotten in over my head. Decided to do a scrappy piano key border. If my calculations and quarter inch seams are correct, I will need 101 pieces and every star point will have to match up. I have 40 pieces cut so far. Maybe I should do one side first to see how it goes.

Lovely tops, everyone. Really striking -- every single one of them.
I'm behind and just finished affixing the large triangles. I'm now trying to decide whether to continue scrappy for the sashing or use a single colour. I'm leaning towards a single colour in medium-dark since the large triangles are so varied. Hopefully I'll have something to post early next week.
I'm glad the next MT will be scrappy as I managed to produce more scraps in this train ride than I used. Those 7-1/2" triangles had me cutting in FQs, so I have the remainder to use up.

Pam that is beautiful. Yes I would do one side first. I still need to put mine together. Have to cut first. Have the scraps laid out in piles.Good thing you all cant see my room.!!! I have a provider who comes in and cleans for me,she has a coronary every time she comes into that part of my house.!!!!! She does not quilt and you should see her lovingly touch my blocks as I make them. She says ooooh this one is my favorite. A true quilt lover.!!!lol
