So... I've already started and finished two projects this month. I'm super excited. I'm finally getting the hang of managing my home and my work and my hobby. Well, I say that today, because I've been quite productive - that could all go to hell next month, or tomorrow even. Anyway, here are photos of my recent accomplishments:

finished exploded star top |
The hexie pillow is actually completed, I just don't have a photo of the finished pillow yet and the exploded star quilt is sandwiched and I will begin the quilting tonight - I'm planning to give this to my uncle for his 50th birthday on Saturday - I hope I can finish this in time so that I will actually give it to him.
Now go and make stuff!

Love the concept of the exploded star top! Is that an original pattern?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy. No, not original, I think it's called a deconstructed star, I just don't always remember that. I've seen the pattern floating around the net for a few years now and always wanted to make one. I used a charm pack for the background squares (5") and a mini charm pack/and other 2.5" squares for the corner pieces. I wish I had made it larger, but my idea was to use 50 squares.
