Countdown to Quilt Show

Our guild's quilt show is at the end of March, and there are three projects I hope to finish up for it. Above is the Friendship Medallion quilt that I am machine quilting; made from the half-square triangles I received from the exchange on The Quilt Show's website, after Edyta Sitar was on the show. I also want to finish the Rainbow Star wallhanging from the Jan Krentz class - it just needs to be quilted, labeled and bound. I ordered some black batting for it because I didn't want bearding on the black background. The third project on my March goal list is the selvage quilt. That just needs 4 more blocks and the borders.

Class

On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the guild had teacher Jan Krentz here for a two day class. The project was a broken star design from her book Quick Star Quilts and Beyond - I'm doing the smaller version with the 3 inch diamond template. The photos are from the class when we had finished cutting out and had put the pieces up on the "design walls" (flannel backed table cloths or batting taped to the walls). I got about a quarter of it pieced in class. Finished one more seam the next day at home.
