finished the quilt top for the August Red Stars!

IMG_2852I decided to embrace a Christmas theme so added green columns to make this a full queen size.  I made 5 or 6 additional blocks so the full size is 6 columns of 10 blocks of 6×9 rectangular stars.  The full length doesn’t show because I had to drape one row over the rail.  I hope to get this to my long arm quilter this week (if I can find the backing in my sewing room).  thanks to everyone who made these stars.  Beautiful variety and range of reds!  I’ll post again when I have it quilted and bound.   I think it will wonderfully cuddly to sleep under in the Christmas season!

    I don’t think any of us thought of Christmas when we made those wonky star blocks … but look what a great Christmas quilt they have made. Love it!

    I love what you did with your winnings. Terrific.

    Very nice! The layout will make way for some beautiful quilting in the green columns.

    FYI, since you posted the finished quilt, I moved this post out of the gallery (show and tell) to the Block Lotto Community category.
