Sheri from A Quilting Life has been hosting a summer block series with a variety of star blocks - one of my favorite.
I finally made the last two blocks. The block on the right actually has a light, light blue center. I opted for that instead of a scrappy 4 patch.
All assembled it into a quilt! I did some wavy straight line quilting (is that a thing?)
I am very happy with the way it turned out. I used all AMB solids and the cornerstones are actually a bright red. Love the way they pop on the quilt. For the binding, I tried a single fold binding an really like the way it turned out.
Sherri will post a parade of photos later this week.
Finishing this mini was also my August ALYOF goal (goal setting post). Finishing this mini was my August goal - I'll be linking up at Another Lovely Year of Finishes.
Happy Stitching!
Why of course wavy straight line quilting is a "thing"! Funny how the littlest change can make one block a favorite, I picked that one as mine before I read your description!
ReplyDeleteI love your new mini quilt. Using solids is so easy on the eye. Do like the wavey line quilting.
