I've been around.
Working here and there on different projects, most of them being Christmas presents that I can't show here. Well, I can't show here yet.
But this one is for a beautiful baby girl in Washington, DC.

I learned how to make these maverick stars here. They're quite addictive, so consider yourself warned.
I put said stars in the "middle" of wonky log cabin blocks, and outlined them in orange. And, as usual, I had a supervisor, ready to step in should I need assistance.



And now it's back to more Christmas sewing!



I hadn't made sleeved pillow cases before, but it was a cinch, and I got to use up two blocks that otherwise would not have had a home. They were just a tad too big for the quilt, and I needed fronts for the pillows anyways, so I quilted them and attached a bright orange backing.

Oh wow. So so cool. I wonder if I might be able to make these pillows. I love the colors.
I could put together a pillow making tutorial for you if you'd like! I do have a few scraps left, if you REALLY love the colors, maybe I'd send something your way for Christmas. :)
beautiful!
Hello! I love love love this quilt. I'm expecting my first baby in July and would love to get started on this for her... would you say it's a very time-intensive pattern or not so bad? Also - any chance you'd share what you did to make your blocks. The wonky stars are so fun, but I think it's what you did with them that make the quilt so special!!
Thanks :)
