OH, My Aching Stars!

 A very happy 4th of July to all you Amerians!!! :) I feel some sisterhood with this version of Lady Liberty today -- I want to 'rest on my laurels now'. LOL

I've been sewing all day (well, 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.) - and my back aches from bending over the sewing table - but I have LOTS to show for it. I have AT LONG LAST completed the top to my Mother's quilt. I started making this in 1998!!! :)

I didn't take a great photo (it was laying out on the table) but I did want to share how I put it together and what I chose for the inner and outer borders. I had a great helper choosing the inner border and the corners for the outer border fabric -- my friend Barbara B was here with me today and she went gathering on the sales floor amongst the bolts to find these prints for me. :)

...

Well, isn't this a fine how-de-do! <grrr> My accessory disk drive has unmounted itself and that's where I store my photos. :( I'll have to go check all the connections (the light is still green so I know it's on) and post the pictures later. :( <grrr> I do not like machinery that fails -- and it never fails at a convenient time. (guess that would be impossible since it is _never_ convenient, eh?LOL)
