Anne from Guam Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Did you make the entire quilt? Our group insists that the quilt be a group project. But it would be a challenge for most to piece feathered stars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharond Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Anne, I did all the cutting, and had some help with the kiting of the individual sections for the stars. The piecing was open to any members that wanted to come and sew for one Saturday. There were 16 members that showed up to sew. We did not complete all of the piecing of the sections. So another gal and my self finished the piecing of the individual sections. Let's just say that if I was to do this again as a group project, I wouldn't do it as a group project. I spent alot of time resewing sections........ I put all of the feathered stars together, and my friend did the Lamoyne Stars. Then I put the top all together. The quilting alone took me 47 1/2 hours. But I am really proud of this quilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharond Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Leslie, I did not keep track of the hours that I put into piecing it, but it was a lot of hours. It is so cool to see your vision come to life, so it was worth all of the time I put in to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
