Well, actually a quilt is finished.
I started this baby quilt a couple of months ago. The individual blocks were all finished but I put it aside to work on something else. I finally got sick of moving it around my sewing studio and decided to finish it this past weekend.
This has to be one of the easiest quilts I have ever made. I used some leftover fat quarters and yardage. The block is based on a Moda Bake Shop recipe called Charming Stars. I made a
version of it a couple of years ago. These blocks were cut a bit smaller to make use of my scraps.
It took no time to sew the 12 blocks together. Basting was a breeze (yoga classes help). I opted for fairly minimal straight-line quilting.
The back is just pieced together from leftover fabric.
I had a pretty purple dot that I used for the binding. This quilt measures approx. 35"x46". I always pre-wash my quilts before gifting or selling. This one is nice and crinkled. Yummy.
I'll definitely be making another one of these. I made 5 extra blocks when making this one because initially I hadn't decided what colors to use, so I have it already started (yay, another WIP!). I also have a bunch of 1930's repro baby prints that I think will work well with this design.
Joyful stitching,
jane
