Six-Pointed Star Quilt Top is ALMOST DONE


All the stars are done and now I'm working on large triangles to give the quilt a nice straight edge.


I taped a bunch of the star paper pieces together to come up with this large triangle...then cut a bunch out of card stock. 


This deep green is a vintage feedsack and the red, blue and yellow flower print is from an old apron. There's a lot of old pieces mixed in.


It's going to need a really good pressing then I can get it ready for hand quilting. Yup, hand quilting! I feel like it NEEDS to be hand done since I've been hand piecing it for the past eight years.
And hopefully the quilting won't take as long as the piecing!
