Inverted Star Top Done

It took me longer than I thought it would, but I got Inverted Star sewn together and off the design wall.  I am very happy with the way this one turned out:  so much more interesting that plain sashing and cornerstones! I have no recipient in mind for this one, so it is going into the closet with my other unfinished tops. This quilt is 72" x 72".

I have been cutting scraps for Charlotte Hawk's next mystery quilt.  I usually start by cutting from my bins of scraps, which are sorted by color.  This time I started with unsorted scraps and went on from there. That way I skip the sorting step.  It saves me a little time this way, and Charlotte's quilt tend to be very scrappy, not controlled scrappy like Bonnie Hunter's mysteries.  I am going to do a scrappy background for this one  too.  I have been cutting all week when I haven't been at work, and I'm still not done!  Fortunately, except for the cutting,  Charlotte's mystery starts after Bonnie's mystery is almost done.
