Thank You all for your nice comments! And it is so fun to see what every one are doing with their hst's. Lots of good patterns and blocks to try. I realized that I have (at least) one oooops in my quilt top: Center tree blocks were not supposed to float in my design!. I mean that after finishing the center part, I was supposed to cut it smaller so the tips of the tree blocks were supposed to touch dark floater strip. But I forgot all that by the time I started to sew borders in place... I am going to live with that and be happy to have a little bit larger friendship quilt! :lol:

I am in awe over all of the finished and almost finished quilts of those of you who have posted them! I have not been able to post a "Good job!" on each one posted, but have been oohing and ahhing daily as I check this thread! Such diversity and creativity! You have all done a wonderful job! Kudos!

Mimuscraft, that's a great looking quilt! Love the friendship star border. Hand and machine quilting - I am all for it. Good luck :!: :D

Mimuscraft, I think Enchanted Forest of Friendship is beautiful and well named. I'm hoping to make that my next project using my left overs adding mine to the number of triangles. Shirley35

What a great idea to add "friendship star" blocks in the border! And doing both machine and hand quilting sounds like a great plan!

I got my top finished! And e-mailed picture of it for prototype book. Now it is time to think about quilting... I was thinking of using both hand and machine quilting. I am not comfortable with free motion machine quilting on this kind of project, so some stitch in a ditch with machine and then some hand quilting for those empty areas? Any suggestions and advice are welcome.
