Over on the Quilt Mavericks list, various quilters have been posting star quilts, thanks to our friend Finn over at Pieces from My Scrapbag.
This is the quilt made for my neice Colleen's wedding a few years ago. It was a group project made by all the girls and women in our family who wanted to help. I am the only official "quilter" in the family, but as a team we have managed to do several quilts together for big family events. This was a lot of fun, and it's now a "tradition". In the close up view you can see the "stipple star" quilting, done by my friend and long-arm quilter Barbara Carini.

What a nice idea to have all the girls and woman participate if they want to. Bet once they do, they'd hate to be left out! I really like the finished product..nice quilting and good fabric choices. Makes for a beautiful gift..*VBS* High Five Jenny !!
