Design Stars!

I have been busily working on my quilt top for the McCalls Quilt Design Star Challenge 1! Voting for Challenge 1 Starts June 19th! You will be able to check things out here

Here is a wee sneak peek of what I am working with!

lots of pieces cut out and ready to be sewn

some pieces sewn together

a bucket full of chained pieces

Final quilt top will be shown early next week!! I have to have it submitted by June 17th, and voting will start June 19th. I am so excited to share this with everyone!!

With myself being busy designing, cutting, sewing my little sweeties had to join in on the fun. The pictures say it all!!

See my little design stars at work!! I am so very proud of them!!

It has been a few really busy weeks! And while all of this has going on, there has also been some birthday parties, a wedding and the flu!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!
