After such a productive 2 weeks of quilting there was a real slump as time was limited and we were all sick with the Rotavirus, AKA the stomach flu. I did manage to finally finish my 6th UFO for the year.
This quilt was completely hand stitched and started as a way to use some of the many 2.5 inch squares I swapped with international quilters as a Millennium swap. So as you can see this UFO was started in 2000 so it's great to have it finally finished, although it was a very handy project when I wanted some hand sewing. I hand appliqued the stars to the borders but I did machine quilt it. I actually finished it a couple of weeks ago but the binding waited for a bit as other quilting had priority.
This quilt will also be donated to Peter Mac and will hopefully be loved. More to come as I get back into the swing of my routines after illness.
Hugs, Jan Mac

Sorry to hear you have been so poorly. Hope you are feeling much stronger now. Lovely quilt finish. You obviously have put in a lot of work on this project over the years so it must be gratifying to have finally completed it. Well done!
I hope you are all over the nasty virus now....
What a beautiful Quilt and a great finish. I'm sure it will be treasured by a special person Jan.
