Ann Oswalt emailed me in January looking for the border foundation papers for this quilt. Luckily, I had them on my computer. Ann wrote:

It was my first paper-pieced quilt (and may be the last!) and I am so proud of it. None of the stars cupped and all the points are present and accounted for.
Most of the fabric was from 2 fat quarter packs that my grandson gave me for Christmas.  Some came from my stash.  I ran out of red and purple/navy background and had to buy some, so all the sashing fabric is the same.  The top has been finished for about 6 weeks, but I just finished hand-sewing the binding last night.  Here are pix of the finished product.  Thanks for your help.

Shooting Stars was a Piece O’ Pattern way back in the day. It’s a treat to see it again… thank you, Ann, for sharing your quilt with us all!

Gwyn Jalbert sent me this photo of her finished Tile Tango quilt. Isn’t it great! I love the placement of her colors and the way they lead your eye around the quilt.

I began it at the Palmetto Quilt Guild workshop in October 2020.
It was hand quilted by a Mennonite lady in Elmira, Ontario.  I love it!!
I am working on the first block of Aunt Millie’s Garden and I will be starting Birds in Toyland on Thursday.  See you then!!
