Lone Star - Part 3

I finally have finished sewing together all the strips into the 8 sections for the Lone Star quilt. This is as far as I have been able to get on this project to date.  A lot has been happening at my end and most of it has been non-quilting.  If you have been following my posts you already know the details, and if you just follow the Lone Star Quilt Along group then you can check things out in my Sunday May 20th post.

Here are the pictures of the 8 completed sections, starting with 1 & 2 which were completed back in April.


Next are sections 3 & 4.


Then we have sections 5 & 6.


Finally here are sections 7 & 8.


I hope everyone has fun at today's Lone Star quilt along. I won't be here to join in the fun. I'm heading down to London, Ont. to visit my mom and her friend Jean at the nursing home. Then it's off to see a few out of town friends since likely I won't get another chance this month with everything that is happening next week. Have a great weekend.

It is going to make a striking quilt! I know your life has been a bit crazy lately, but you will have fun getting that Lone Star done in its own time.

That one strip of neon yellow/green is going to POP right out of the quilt. I have to believe it is the color that will form the entire "circle" around the star when all the points are sewn together. Well done!!

Have a safe journey!

This is going to look wonderful, I am really looking forward to seeing it come together.

Sorry you have been having health problems, I hope everything gets sorted out for you soon.
