I finished this beauty on Friday. Well, I think it is a beauty! LOL Some time last year Sarah, of wonky houses flickr fame and I threw around the idea of having a little private swap, as you do. Then life and Christmas and stuff just got in the way and we both agreed "one day". Fastfoward to last month when the chat about flickr DQS#6 was happening and she was getting impatient to start, we agreed to squeeze our little swap in before the flickr one.
And having been caught up in the joy of making maverick stars for the Bushfire Quilts project, I went small stars! And all scraps except for the borders and binding.
As always I made two, one for me, one for the swapee! I made my one first so the second one for Sarah is much neater, more well made. Oh, such bad English Helen, more well executed in it's construction? It's better! Here's a sneek peek Sarah. I can't resist blogging it!

Helen, this is beautiful. I love the colors you've used! I am ready to try some free motion quilting myself and the whole process terrifies me!

It's wonderful! I love the colours.
Adorable adorable. Thanks for sharing.

Great quilts, I love the colour combinations.
I love the outline quilting around the stars. A stroke of genius!
beautiful! I love how you quilted it - makes the stars sand out even more!
Lovely as usual Helen. Don't know how you manage to always do two I'm hard pressed doing one
I love this. I think this has to be one of my favourites.
Just gorgeous Helen, I love all the stars and the colours look wonderful together.
Wowo another stunning Quilt from the super talented Mini Quilt Lady!!
Love it! I love how the binding looks like a 3rd border - heck I like the 2 borders & I love the striped binding. Love the quilting - color on white!
So incredibly cute! Love the bright colors against the white! Love those wonky stars. I really should try my hand at those.
