I know I say this every week, but this week flew by. For real. Here's what I've been working on.
Finished:
Nada.
Ongoing projects:
My Lucky Stars quilt
Quilt top finished! I used Kona Ash as a sashing for these blocks from my VIBees friends.
And...here's the back. I based it on Jeni's Giant Vintage Star tutorial, just made it smaller and out of one fabric. Kelly suggested echo quilting on the inside and outside of the star, and I'm thinking that will be awesome!
Deer Quilt
I put this guy together. Pattern from Dare To Be Square Quilting. I need to see what I have on hand for the backing. I'm thinking red binding.

Whoa. You got a lot done this week! No wonder it feels like it flew by. Can I just say that I am in love with your My Lucky Stars quilt? It is fabulous. All the blocks are winners!
I adore your My Lucky Stars quilt, I love the idea of a star sampler, that's awesome! The backing you pieced looks amazing, and I love your idea for the quilting :)
Love the stars and your deer is so cute! Oh, and the backing of your stars quilt is great. I have a thing about the backs of quilts! They need attention too!
I'm in love with the lucky stars - how gorgeous! And what a great idea to do a giant square for the back -- love it!
That Deer Quilt is a show stopper. Love the stars, too.
The deer quilt is fabulous, my sister goes to an agricultural college and her guy friends would FLIP over it.. love it!
Both quilts are going to be fabulous, and I say go with the red binding for the deer!
Both quilts are stunning. I really like the huge star for the back of that quilt, it's perfect!
Love your lucky star sampler, great idea!
I love that deer quilt! I agree red would look great for the binding. I'm working on the 'do not compute' quilt from the same book! I think I want to make them all :)

Love the stars sampler and back! Gives me the hankering for a sampler :)
Somehow I think I've missed the star quilt before, but it is awesome! Love the colors and variety of stars. The backing for it is really fun, too! I agree that red binding would love fab around the deer. You have just been a little sewing machine, haven't you?
That reindeer is priceless!!!! Plus the fabric you used for your stars is just marvelous, and I love the giant star for the backing, that is trully inspired. Visiting from WIP.
