Finally back to quilting
August is always one of the busiest months for me. Everything is coming ripe in my garden and needs tending. I work the Clackamas County Fair as a 4-H superintendent and that take about 10 days out of the month (many of them 12 hour days). Our family also went camping and I spent 2 days with my oldest daughter. So here it is the end of the month and I'm finally back to quilting. This quilt was started around the 1st of August. I love the final look -- though I must say I was very tired of it after hours and hours of quilting. One of the best parts of this quilt is the way the colors of each star block are placed in the quilt. The fabrics are all batiks. Beautiful!
