On my quilting blog, I have posted about Don's Lone Star quilt. This is the 7th Lone Star that I made, out of 10.
You can click the words above the photo - or the photo to read all about it.

It is a beautiful work of art, JoAnn! All the work and love you have put into it really shows. I love the bears and the cattail details. All the quilts are beautiful and the story behind them. What wonderful gifts you have given your family. Hugs xoxo
Its a beautiful quilt, JoAnn, I love it. I made my first quilt last year for my first granddaughter, now I have a new granddaughter, so guess I need to make a start on another quilt.

I love Lone Star JoAnn. I have a friend who is a marvellous quilter. (I have made a few but not in your league - or hers). I am sending her a link to your site so that she can see this - she is not a blogger.
So very pretty, I didn't know you quilted.
Oh what beautiful work you have done. I love the colours. B
JoAnn, your work is gorgeous and these star patterns are NOT easy! Your points all match and your hand quilting is intricate. I also love your color choices on each project.
My goal is to have one heirloom quality quilt completed for each grandchild....a formidable goal since I don't even have the first of 6 pieced together yet!
My MIL was a quilter so I know the time and effort this takes.
Really beautiful!
JoAnn, your Lone Star quilt is beautiful. I enjoyed reading about the quilt making for your family. How wonderful!
I remember reading about these. I still cannot get over how lovely they are and how you made so many of them...you are amazing! :)
JoAnn - Your quilt is gorgeous! Can't believe you've made that many. Amazing work.

Now this one is my favorite!
What a lot of work and love. It's a beautiful quilt. I love the colors you chose.
JoAnn, this is beautiful! I've never done a Lone Star and I am very impressed by your beautiful work.
Thanks so much for joining in this week.

I've made some lone star quilts too but never that many. Keeping everything a surprise must have been a challenge!
