Borgasmord (Star Struck) is Finished

My Scrappy Borgasmord.  It is huge, there is just as much quilt on the other side.  It's not shy.
A very colorful back if I do say.  The coin strips are left overs from my border and the purple is from flannel pillowcases.  The buttercup (looks orange to me) is a flannel king sized flat sheet and 2 king sized pillowcases.  The rest of the strips are flannel leftovers.  I got a really good deal on the flannel sheets on ShopNBC, and I still have the fitted sheet leftover.  I think it works out to less than $1.50 a yard for nice heavy flannel.


  Still some too dark lights and some too light darks, but all in all I'm ok with it.   Now into the washer and dryer and it can go on the bed in my husband's office.   It may soon be covered with papers.  Oh well, the bed in my sewing room is often covered with stacks of fabric, lol.

It's awesome! The back must have been challenging to piece also because it's just so much fabric to deal with!

It looks lovely, very cheerful. But I keep thinking of how difficult it must have been to quilt something that large. I've got two large quilts that I need to make over the next few months and I'm already thinking about the difficulties of quilting them.

It is beautiful. We are all our own worst critics. I think it turned out fabulous! Love the back, what a fun mix of color and texture.
