October's Project

So this is the quilt that I've been working on for over a year. I'm not sure when I started cutting out the pieces but after I got the 56 starflower squares pieced together I took a break. As you can see it takes up almost half of the great room. On the 21st of November we are having the annual YM/YW planning meeting/breakfast at our house--in this room--so I have until then to get it done. Should be easy if I quilt 2 or 3 squares a day but if not, I'm doing the outside squares first so I can take it off and put it back on without much trouble. I'm doing this as a "heirloom" quilt (so the grand kids will have something to vie for when I'm gone) but it will go on our bed and I'm also using it as a Value Project for YW---Knowledge--because I had to learn how to do this every step of the way! It's been fun but one per lifetime is good enough for me!
