getting closer to a FINISH on isaac and ani's quilt xo

woo hoo ~ i sewed the last of the triangles on the very last block yesterday....

72 scrappy foundation pieced diamonds with 2 triangles each...squared up into 36 ~ 13 3/4  inch blocks

[supposed to measure 14" but i always manage to mess that up a bit...no such thing as scant 1/4 inch for this girl ]

started this beauty back here just over a year ago...

i have 9 stars that need to all come together...

i pieced the first one...

there is a whole lot of bulk going on in the center back so i opened the seams and  used a whole lot of steam xo

this finished block measures 26" and it is so beautiful...8 more to go and then it is quilting time....usually i have a pretty good idea on HOW but not this time....xo

  happy tuesday xo pam  ~  linking up with randi @ i have to say ....show and tell tuesday
