Lone Star Quilt Number Two

This is the continued story of the Lone Star Quilts I made for my family.  Read about the beginning of the project here

The second Lone Star Quilt I want to show you is pink and white - for our oldest daughter.





 Start with the points of the star - pieced from 8 different fabrics.




All the points sewn together, forming the star.  






Borders - using the same fabrics








Attaching the borders to the star.

Oh...Oh, I've been waiting to see more and I didn't even turn on my computer yesterday!!

LOVE LOVE the colors in this one Joann. The border design is soooo clever!! You always come up with the best ideas!!

Will these quilts be your 'swan song' from quilting???
Could you completely give it up??
