I did a few more stars yesterday after I posted, bringing my total yesterday to 5. That makes 9 done and 11 to go. Today, I’ve done 2 stars already and hope to do 4 more before this evening’s hockey game between Montreal (Applause, applause) and Boston (Booooo!). I would have had more done today, but I forgot about a midday game. I’m not huge into hockey, but my DH is, so I am, too. He’s into my quilting because I am, so it pays off whenever I want to stop at a quilt shop. Anyway, here’s pics of some of the stars backs and a couple fronts (next to their backs).
This next set is how I make my wholecloth designs. Remember, I don’t like to mark, so I just make the 4 axis lines and punt from there. This is a very small piece, measuring 6.5 inches across.
I’ll switch to it as my warm up and show the progression over the next few days.

Big hockey fan, love my Sabres. great idea to use wallpaper.
Go Montreal!! Love the design you put in the triangles.
I love that "punt from there"! Getting football and hockey in the same quilting post!Well Done! That is a teeny tiny "wholecloth" quilt you've got there. I'm working on my first wholecloth design, which I hope to work on during the next two weeks, and I'm not real keen on marking either, so I may have to take up punting as well! Love how your friendship stars are looking!
Wendy - I LOVE what you've done to the stars!!! - am so excited - can hardly wait!!!!!
