My big giant star


My church is having a "Time and Talent Auction" tomorrow.  It's a fund raiser.  We haven't had one of these auctions for several years.  I decided to use the free pattern "Made in Cherry".  I believe I first blogged about it back here.
I got the binding sewn on last weekend, and washed and dried it to give it the crinkly look.
I used a red and white striped binding...... I just love using stripes for binding!

It is difficult to get a good picture of it, due to the time of year, and the size!  It measures 80"x 80". 
Here's a shot of the back.  I threw in 5 color catchers when I washed it, just to be on the safe side!  :)  


Have a great weekend!  Stay warm - very cold here today....

Not quite sure if it's finished or not........

I just put the borders on my scrappy "I'm a Wiener" quilt.  
Here it is --
I was thinking about appliqueing a dog bone in each of the corners.  Or a dog bone and a dish.  But now I am thinking I should just leave it as is.  What do you think?

Linking up to Crazy Mom Quilt's Finish It Up Friday.  Even though it's Saturday.  :)
