Lone Star Number Six - Jay

Next - our youngest daughter's Purple Lone Star  Quilt was shown - - and here is her husband Jay's Green Lone Star.  Greens make such a peaceful quilt.



It all starts with that stack of fabrics - gathered together to make the strips.  .  .



 


Points of the star - ready to become a star.  .  .


All the points - I like the way the colors move when you look at it .  .  .  




Done - with tri-color border.  .  .


After a trip to Julie in Idaho - the center of the star .  .  .

And on top of everything else...you're a quilter! :-) I just discovered your blogs! LOVE these two Lone Stars! The blue is my favorite, but they are both gorgeous! Wow! The only time I tried to make a Lone Star I had ISSUES (couldn't find directions anywhere, and tried to do it without them) I did do a little bit of a lone star design in a quilt I am quilting right now and it isn't an easy pattern to follow. I'm impressed! (Check out my quilting blog by accessing it on my sidebar)

Another beautiful Lone Star quilt. Julie did a great job on the quilting. Congrats to you both.

I am not a machine person and have made lone stars by hand, but once my youngest daughter made strip stars and I got a second quilt out of her leftovers. You are very good at making that machine behave!
