Tell it to the Stars

This huge quilt is now done! it is big and heavy, toasty warm.  There is one more big quilt to be quilted, my Grand Illusion which I hope to finish real soon.  Good feeling to be this close to all UFOs quilted.

Pinning a big quilt

Wow, Tell it to the Stars is big!  I've quilted others this big, but I sure will be glad when it's done.  not sure how to quilt it...upper left corner isn't cooperating as to being flat, hope it will "quilt out" okay!

Color Wheel block

Here's the first block of the Color Wheel Quilt.  Definitely a learning "curve" with this, hopefully I will improve as I go along.  There are 12 wheels in the quilt, for a 64"x64" finish.  The pattern called for different "low volume" backgrounds but I don't have that, so good ole Kona gray is my backup choice.  For the colors, I had a pack of rectangles 2.5"x5" that were popular a few years ago, plus I have been buying charm squares from the Missouri Quilt Company, their "daily Deals" and don't think I need any more deals!  In fact I'll be looking for patterns using the 5" squares...
