Mystery Quilt Top

I had some wonderful quilting time on the weekend. My sister-in-law arrived from New Jersey to give us a much needed break from dealing with my mother-in-law. I got out my blocks from the "Ladies of the Evening" mystery class at Reichards that I attended two weeks ago (which turned out to be the night my MIL had her stroke). I had sewn half of the quilt top together in the class, and I got the rest finished on the weekend.
It is a large lap size and so I am not going to make it bigger with any borders. I love the scrappy look of this quilt and am looking forward to the machine quilting.

I like that quilt. The star in the middle is a great addition to the quilt.

WOW!!! How pretty is that??? I may have to save some of my big charms and try this- I just love the star center :) I love the musketeers too!!

Gorgeous ! I'm a bit sick of triangles at the moment ( making them not looking at them) but would love to do something like this one day. Well done !

Oh - that is a neat quilt! I really like the setting. I am glad you have had some time to get back to it - being in the middle is always tough.
