I’m working block by block on a quilt for my Mom. I’m feeling quite a bit of guilt in that I haven’t made anything for my mom (or dad really). Every time she comes to visit, she compliments me on projects I’m working on and admires my completed quilts. She’s the one who taught me to sew, and I haven’t made her anything.
I really like paper pieced star blocks. I just think that they are really really pretty. And I know that my mom will love the finished quilt.
Here are the two I made so far, using two patterns from Fresh Lemon Quilt’s Solstice Star Series. Each star takes about an evening to make, and I’m just chugging along.
Pretty. I know she will cherish it as much as we cherish the quilt you made us.
Such pretty blocks, I love star blocks…look a little complex for me though lol.
I made a quilt for my Mum last Christmas, best thing I’ve ever done she loves it and I loved making it for her, your mum will love it.
These are so gorgeous. I love blocks like this, but I’m scared of paper piecing. Maybe I should just go for it?
