"Star Burst"

 So I finally finished this little quilt!!! WHEW!! I started it sometime in 2012 when I was participating in SewCalGal's 2012 Free Motion Quilting Challenge.
 The orange yellow starts are from a computer software program and are printed on fabric. Someone had given me printable fabric and it was horrible!!! I will be throwing out any remaining. No flexibility, very stiff and awful!! So I have a few wrinklies here and there in the pebbling.
 I truly thought I was going to implode with all those small pebbles. What on earth was I thinking!!??
 But, it is done and ready to hang and now on to the next project that I also started during 2012.
Did I tell you that I stopped counting my unfinished projects when I reached 31? Seriously!!!!
Happy Quilting
Take Care
Until we meet again!

  2. Just stopping by to see what kind of mischief you're up to. Love this little quilt! I have been doing some mini quilts, too. We should compare notes. And I keep my quilting "in progress" and "completed" details in Excel.

    1. I started a list too with priority marked, but haven't stuck completely to that!! Then I get mending and alterations from family friends and co-workers. That makes it difficult. Not many people sewing out there!!! Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend!!!

    1. Thank you Doreen :^), although I really was frustrated with all those time pebbles, I know it was good hand-eye coordination practice, so not all bad!! Just so time consuming.
      Our little grand is a sweetie, like all little girls, so fun.
      Have a wonderful weekend and thanks so much for the visit!!
