    This quilt started life in a class in October last year. I thought it was a One Block Wonder and posted pics under this name during the 2 classes. It was going really well till I started putting the blocks together into rows and then I ran into a snag. I didn't read the instructions closely enough. It said to press the seams OPEN and I pressed to the side, but only in some of the blocks. When I started sewing the blocks together the star points didn't match the way they should have. I was so disappointed. Stuffed it in a tote and put it on the shelf. Last week I pulled it out and undid all the seams that were wrong, repressed everything and started fixing the seams. I finished it Wednesday evening. Then found out I'd left my camera at the LQS. So took it to town this morning with me, hung it and got these pictures.

    The orange color is actually peach
