stars and strips forever
adapted from eleanor burns' quilt in a day: star log cabin. a day? one freakin' day?
as if, eleanor. as if.
i thought i'd be working on this forever. realistically, it only felt like forever because i had to snatch an hour here and hour there instead of devoting longer stretches of time to just plowing through it. but now it's finished, ready to be sent off to its new home, having raised $1000 as a raffle quilt.
not bad for fifty years' work.
here you can see the full quilt, a close-up of a few blocks, the little patch i made to repair a tiny tear in one of the blocks that was incurred after quilting, and the label on the back.
it's finished. it's leaving today. i'm happy and ready. onward!
