Whenever I accept donation quilts to work on, I think, ‘It’ll be good practice!’ Then several years go by and I wonder if I should have taken on the project.
After several years of working on these star quilts, I can definitely say I got a lot of practice. Not that they were big projects, but that between having a kid and working on other things, it was a long time getting them finished.
it doesn’t show like I’d hoped, but there’s a shooting star flying in from the left.

What’s neat about finishing 2 identical tops is that you can see what a difference the quilting makes.
