Over the weekend, I made progress on my wonky stars quilt top from last week's WIP Wednesday.
I also made a really excellent and high quality design wall, by taping a couple of spare strips of batting to the wall with painter's tape. It did the job though, and I finished the quilt top - it has ended up at about 40" wide and 49" high.
I am really really happy with this quilt so far, and I have the backing and binding fabrics chosen already. My plan for this week is to baste this quilt, so I can at least get started with the quilting on the weekend. Wish me luck, because I have work functions on both Thursday and Friday nights!
What are you working on this week?

Ooooooh I adore the colors! It's so gorgeous! :O
My design wall is thumbtacked to my wall because the painter's tape kept coming un-stuck, so I know how that goes. ;)
Gorgeous! Loving it in all solids!
Its beautiful! I like your design wall!
It is looking great!
I love those stars in the solids - and I really need to make some sort of a design wall too as I usually just use the loungeroom floor.
Those stars really glow on the variety of greens! Good luck with the quilting, but don't stress about getting it finished- enjoy the journey!
Looks great! It's so nicely sewn and pressed it almost looks like paper.
It looks stunning. I am happy to have just found your blog.
I love using neutral for the stars instead of the background. Great work!
I LOVE these colors!!!! They are right up my alley!
OMG. I am loving these colors, too. Beautiful! I'm excited to see the finished product :-D Thanks for stopping by WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced!
Love your quality design wall. ;) I'm with everybody else, beautiful colours. Good luck with your schedule.
I love your colours and the way those little stars pop out. I also like the way your tape co-ordinates with the quilt:-)
I adore your color scheme - such a striking quilt!
Ha ha, love the design wall. It doesn't matter as long as it does the job :)
It's adorable. I have been thinking about trying out wonky stars on a Constellations background, but I really like the solids.
Love the colors . . . some of my favorites. And the blue tape is priceless.
Beautiful!
I am loving it :o)
Gorgeous, bold and bright!
Looks wonderful! I really like the colors you choose. It makes all the stars just pop!
