Plaid string and star!

Another UFO I could finish before the year end!  It will be close though...


I have introduced you to the plaid string side which now has a simple solid yellow border instead of the complicated one I had planned before.






But the giant star is new!






Was hoping they could pair up and make a quilt together....what do you think!?


I am going to give it a go at least!  And as usual I seem to prefer my quilt back to the front so I guess this is the new quilt front??

[Edit: I should have told you I was inspired by Katy Jones and this quilt who was inspired by Jeni and quilt and tutorial - my squares are a touch smaller at 15"]

  11. Love that star! I've meant to do one for ages, and now I want to do one even more, I don't know how you decide which is the front and which is the back though, as both are so brilliant.
