twinkle tiwnkle little star

well...here it is, all quilted up. i couldn't decide on how to stitch it...first i thought i'd stencil stars from a glow-in-the-dark star on the back and machine quilt it with the bottom on top....nah, that didn't work...alright, the only thing that i am  confident and have the patience for is line quilting...in-the-ditch, echo, outline, and so forth....

i figured if i outline quilted the star and some of the center, the quilt would have a nice even feel to it...besides, it's going to be a picnic blanket...

it's going to the fair along with the "hailey marie" quilt

my goal in life is to win a blue ribbon at the local fair. so far, i've received honorable mention and third place...haha, of course i'm not giving 110% to get them, i enter for shits n giggles.

once again, the quilt is pictured on its side. the top is the right side of the picture.

haha...and because it's sneaky and i feel like being an ass, i'm going to make a wall hanging for my ol man of "sweet lemonade"
