Betty's Bali Star





This is Judy Niemeyer's Bali Star pattern made by my fellow Prairie Quilt Guild member Betty.  She did a beautiful job on the piecing.  Quilting this nearly did me in - totally my own fault for coming up with a time-consuming quilting design that ate up thread at an alarming rate!



 


I love pieced quilts, but quilting 56 of the same block is mind numbing.  Now that it is finished I do think it looks great. 





It's quilted with Superior So Fine.






Back to work on Gail's show quilt.  Happy Easter!

  5. It is a great motif; love it. BTW...there is an area on one of the last 2 pics that is missing some pebbling (hopefully it was taken before the quilt came off)

    1. Yikes - I don't see it! Hopefully what you saw is the edge of the quilt, the batting showing behind the curved edge where the next block would be.
