On this Design Wall Monday, I thought I might actually have a finished quilt to show by end of April, but alas, I do not. I'm going to blame that on Squirrels that easily distracted me from the basting and quilting portion of the month's UFO pick by Patchwork Times. On my list #5 is the Medallion Star Rescue quilt, a relic from the early 1990s that got passed on to me a few years ago. I chopped off parts and added pieced borders to bring it back to life.
The center star is all quilted. There is a bit of tenting at the very middle which may require some extra stitching to tame, but there is plenty of quilting left to do. I also cut binding and will have to be clever with adding more fabric to make it around this lap quilt.

Hi Annie,
This is so pretty! I love the quilting you did on the center star. It looks great to me. ~smile~

You made a lot of progress even if you didn't hit your goal. I like the way you quilted the center.
Sometimes just getting started is a goal all by itself. I'm a big red, white, and blue fan so this is right up my alley.
I think you have done well. A little tenting just means you can take it camping. : )
It's looking good. It's nice to have things finished by a deadline, but sometimes taking the journey is worth more than winning the race. :-)
Another UFO almost off the list. Progress is always good even if you can't claim a finish. It's looking great.
