Star Surround complete !

I have finished my Star Surround! (QAL over at Happy Quilting by Melissa )

It was such a great QAL and the first time I have joined in on one! The assignments were well explained, with lots of pictures, and very achievable steps each week. Thank you Melissa!!

For the backing I used a small polka dot fabric...I wanted something simple to show off the front!

And I used a bit of fabric from the Origins line for the binding. The whole Star Surround is from my Origins bundle...just love it!

It is all washed and lovely now. I am so proud of this one...it is not perfect..but my first real attempt at stars and lots of pointy bits!!  As Melissa would say...."Yippee Skippy" !!
...and it is my birthday...So Happy Birthday to me!! LOL
