ffq-lar Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 One of my regulars worked for many months on this one. I believe it's called "Stars for a New Day" and her piecing is meticulous. Perfectly 90" square and a joy to stitch on. Here is a full shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 She has received honorable mention ribbons at our big regional fair several times but I think she wants a ribbon of a different color. Here's the center feathered star with quarter-inch curved crosshatching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffq-lar Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 And a shot of the offset stars in one border. It was interesting finding something besides micro-stitching to accent that area. I stitched the points of the line design into the adjacent borders. I'll let you know how she likes it! Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
