Polly's Patriotic Simple Star Quilt photo

Big thank-you's, Jenn. I do appreciate your showing the stars quilt for me. Making that quilt was just pure fun from the very first block down to the last quilting stitch. I mentioned it earlier in the DJ thread - you'll notice that I didn't make any attempt at all to have the stars' backgrounds identical - and - I think it makes the quilt more interesting. Or something. Polly

I much prefer a scrappy design for this quilt - almost gives the illusion of the stars 'waving in the wind'. Another success from your heart. jennellh

Oh! How lovely! The colours, layout and balance are all just gorgeous! Well done, Polly!

Love it Polly, but Winston has no head dress. He has neither a hat or tinsel on his antlers.

Thanks for showing us Polly's latest creation, Jenn.

I am sure there will be a few more smiles in the ward when this bright and happy quilt is laid on the bed, Polly. Well done you.

I'm not really 'into' stars, so I can't help you with the name Polly. Sorry. . In message , Jennifer in Ottawa writes

Winston has to stick his nose into everything going on around here. Wouldn't you think he would have at least had the nice manners to lick the strawberry ice cream off his upper lip? He's such an animal. Polly

Thank you, my special friends. If there's ever a category at a quilt show for "Had the Most Fun", I'd be first to enter. Polly

And you would win it hands down (especially if 'historically' is taken into account. . In message , Polly Esther writes

Love it! Maybe it's name is 'Simple Star' but the look is anything but simple. It's absolutely gorgeous. Polly, I agree with your assessment about the scrappy backgrounds. Much more interesting and ... quilty. Some service person is going to get the best quilt ever.

Thanks for making these quilts, Sunny
