Silent Star afghan

Sue made this fantastic "Silent Star" afghan with over 700 pieces.  It took her a good year while she was making all the other items she made for our group.  We will be donating this to the Lions Club of North Oshawa.  Thanks Sue and great job!  Want to do another one?  Just kidding....!
