What was your inspiration?

I wanted to make a quilt for Ruby. She is a little rescue pup who had been very badly treated and had to have one of her eyes removed:( We all love her and she now has a wonderful home with my daughter Louise and son-in-law Lewis.

What are you most proud of?

How the quilt turned out! I used the skills I learned from the Craftsy BOM Balkan Puzzle Block and also looked at various star blocks for inspiration.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Look at lots of examples of other peoples blocks and just enjoy creating:)

The fabrics that you used are perfect. I really like all of the colors. I like the pattern that you came up with also. What size does it turn out to be? Nice job by you & your family.
