Sketching...How I Plan a Quilt

I have been thinking.....and thinking.....and thinking of how to make my girls' quilts so that I am not cutting this awesome fabric to bits.  I just had to go with stars....and I remember seeing the Oh! Fransson Sparkle Punch quilt!  My thought is just to make it on a MUCH larger scale!

So here is my sketch!  I finished it during my lunch break at work today.  The finished size is going to be approx. 72" x 84". This way each star will be huge, lending itself to those large prints.

We'll see how it turns out in real life!!
