I have started working on the Starburst Quilt from Kathy's book as well as nearly finished the hand quilting and I am hoping to have that finished by the weekend. It has been humid here the last few days and the quilting is at a stage where I need the whole quilt on my lap to finish which isn't very comfortable so it has slowed up a pace, however it will be cooler today and I am hoping tonight will be better.
I have 6 of the starburst blocks cut out all except the outer edge, I think I will get the centres all done and then work out what to use to pull the blocks all together with the backgrounds.
I think it is going to end up being very yellow/orange in the end which is a big departure for me but I have decided this quilt is not going to be safe.
Down to the run down the week went like this:
Wednesday: Coffee with the girls (no sew)
Thursday: quilting
Friday: quilting
Saturday: quilting
Sunday: starburst blocks cut out
Monday: quilting and more fabric came in the post and I cut out the blue block in the first photo.
Tuesday: quilting but not much because it was just too hot.
How'd you go this week. Kate has a wrap of the month today.

Starburst looks amazing. All those points look perfect. I love the fabric combos.
Looks like you had a great week!
I love your starburst blocks. They are going to make a stunning quilt. Six days sewing is great in my book.
The starburst blocks looks great! nice week!
Beautiful blocks! I just started a quilt that will have a lot of orange in it. It'd definitely a color that's not in my comfort zone.
Great week. Hope your weather turns a corner soon and you get some milder days showing up.
Your starbursts are really pretty. The curvy edges look challenging.
Which book is this Starburst Quilt from Amanda??? I just LOVE it!
