Rff1010, is looking good! I have a project that in the planned pile (its for me even) that will have 9 lone stars in it, but I am lacking motivation...
I did get the airplane quilt for my Tuesday Group hostess quilted, posted that in the Virtual Weekend Thread. Since I'm posting anyway, I'll throw the picture here too. Our usual group quilter lost her husband at the end of last year and had to bow out of this project, she just wasn't up to it. The person getting the quilt is the 2nd quilter in line and we are trying to surprise her. 3rd quilter in line is having shoulder surgery and not allowed to be lugging around quilt top... And then it was my turn in line! I did a basic serpentine grid, which is the go-to answer for Janice and how she quilts about 90% of her tops, so it was a nod to her within my skill set. (Not that we are counting but I was able to take the backing -- true vintage!!, 1952-3 could be dated from a rare printed selvedge, the border, and the sashing fabric all out of stash)
edit if in time, top is at next person for binding to be attached (5th machine quilter in line but beautiful handwork) and the final person, our newest member and while has vast garment skills, her blocks in this were only her second quilt blocks. Her first were for the quilt we made for the No. 1 quilter last year...
I am slowly back to work at Aunt Debby Bleeds Blue, I got my 2nd order of fabric, and have that cut. I have begun to make the star blocks, the centers are cut and I'm doing the yellow points. I have to cut and make the fan blade sections after that, then the fan blocks and then put it together, the background and the pie pieces are ready to go.
It is hot here for us, no AC in my house and sewing room is the hottest room in the house. Good thing I get up early when it is cool.
Sort of got into a happy place there of looking at online fabric and such, can be dangerous. I don't think I've gotten a back for Debbie's yet -- I'll have to go back and double check, but am doing well otherwise resisting buying more.
