    Yep, it's done! I will NEVER do this again. Not that it didn't turn out cool, but I really don't like spending 6 months of evenings coloring on one quilt. Give me applique!!

    I also thought I'd let you know that I finally updated the blog. I had one daughter graduate from high school, and another get married, six days apart. I have survived and am quilting like CRAZY. There is a link to the blog under my signature!

    It's DONE!!

    Very pretty quilt. Did you color the green stars? I can't really tell how you did it--can you post a close-up? Anyway, it's really very pretty.

    Ooh, very pretty. Is it possible to get some close-up shots? I've thought about coloring on fabric, but haven't got the nerve up to try yet.

    if You do a search on Stars in My Garden, you'll see some WIP photos that she posted earlier, or just go to her blog.
