quilt festival

I'm hoping nobody minds that I do this, because this is old news to anyone who has been reading my sporadic entries this year, but I wanted to make a single, combined post about my quilt 'star stories' for an online quilt festival.  It seems there is an online quilting community, of which I am not really part of.  Perhaps it is time.

The rules for the quilt festival ask that we write a post about our quilt that we're entering, and provide photos.  The problem is that I've done this already, in two separate posts.  Forgive me if I combine the two of them together to tell the story of 'star stories' in a single post.  It, and plenty of photos, are after the jump.
