It seemed like a modest goal ... but still took some effort for me to complete it. This 60-inch square quilt top now feels "done" and and ready to be quilted. Somehow the addition of those quirky feather-inspired leave shapes–that I know wouldn't have been everyone's choice–makes it more "me."
Along the way, this quilt now has a name, Ring Around the Lone Star. It's my completed project for A Lovely Year of Finishes. This project has helped me push myself even when I continue to have little or no inclination to quilt ...

She's a real beauty, Sophie! Love that you kept to your own inclination on the feathery leaves. They look wonderful. Congratulations on a lovely, lovely finish!
What a lovely quilt--I like the feathery leaves, too! Really sweet...hugs, Julierose
There's so much I like about this quilt, from the log cabins used to set the lone star to the star flowers. Very good, Sophie.
Very beautiful, Sophie, love it !
Those leaf shapes are what drew my eye in this quilt - great addition! Congrats on getting it completed.
I see the feathery leaves and enjoy them, however when I look at the whole quilt from a distance the circle of stars with the blue streaks behind them look like starburst to me. So much movement! Love it!!
This is just lovely! A ton of work sure went into this one, but what a pay off!
Beautiful finish! I love the completed project.
It's beautiful Sophie! I love everything about it!
