    Default Paper Pieced stars (phew it's done)

    Back on march 3rd I asked for advice on what colors to use to when I hand quilted it. thanks to NJ Quilter for her expert advice. this is my first paper pieced quilt, which I attempted during the year long project "The splended sampler." I was always intrigued with pp'ng, but the Sampler gave me the courage to explore. Found these star online at Wombats Quilts. though some were very tough for me ( i did say I was new to this). I was determined to finish.

    Now I need your help again. I need a name for it. Any suggestions? [ATTACH=CONFIG]572671[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]572672[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]572673[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]572674[/ATTACH]

    I recently named one "A Different Strategy" because I had to change the way I put the block together. So...how about "Determination" or something that makes you think specifically of this quilt?

    I have no suggestions for a name, but I really like it and admire you for starting out on something like this My first pp was simple 5 pointed stars alternating with 9 patches. Much simpler.
