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....
