    So pretty & what an array of fabrics! Looks like they range from the 20s to the 60s. Did you make the star or rescue it?

    Hello LeeAnn I love your stitches so perfectly made and the quilt and the fabrics you used are so beautiful . Sorry I didn't respond to your comment on my last post which has been a while now , I have been busy in my studio and the ongoing grind of making frames for customers to keep the store going besides quilting and teaching I hope I will be able to post a photo with my students and their projects sometime soon ,wish you happy quilting .
