All finished. I am quite pleased because I really haven't enjoyed making this quilt. Too much pink and orange and the grey was very somber but I think the purple ikat really helps.

New Fabric and Finished Star
This week brought me a new stash of fabric from Contemporary Cloth . I really didn't want to do it but they were having a sale and I loved the colours and before I knew it, I hit the pay button.
Yesterday was the start of the weekend. I just had to get the star quilt moving because I have all this new fabric to think about. Mini star number four was quickly finished. On an impulse, I pulled out some old Kaffe fabric that had been waiting (about 2 years) for just this moment.

I love your star quilt. Especially those little stars in the corners. Looks like a lot of piecing. How are you going to quilt it? Great new fabrics too. I know the danger of on line shopping only too well ;)..... enough said ;). Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Vreni x
