Quilting: Bright Stars and Dark Chocolate
8 kudoz

Bright Stars and Dark Chocolate

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Boys

Style: Whimsical, Cute


Materials

scraps from my stash,

What was your inspiration?

My grandson's favorite colors change daily, so I thought to give him a little of everything.

What are you most proud of?

The color selection.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This isn't a difficult quilt, you just need to have fun with it. Try to use all the same "weight" fabric. My brown cloth was lighter than the stars, and it made quilting difficult. Also starch the squares before sewing, and your points will come out crisper.

I had seen similar patterns, but they involved set in diamonds, so I made up this one out of half square triangles
