Ohio Star Series 21-2

 K.I.S.S. .....  Keep It Simple Silly !!!   A theory I constantly forget !  This is my 2nd project in the Ohio Star Series Challenge.  It is the center only,  45 x 63.  I have a couple of complimenting borders planned for it before it's finished.  Yesterday, A quilting buddy helped me  tremendously with the layout.  I love it.  I was trying to make it balance and blend, but getting confused along the way.

I am calling this project  "Autumn Splendor".  Most of the fabrics have flecks of gold (my favorite) in it and it sparkles.  The applique blocks are cut by accuquilt dies, fused and top stitched.  In fact, the entire top was cut by accuquilt.  It was so fun.  When I quilt this project,  I will use a poly batting and ditch around the shapes so they puff nicely.


I'm linking up with these great sites this week.  Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.
