Outer Space Baby Quilt

 Patty asked me to design a baby quilt for Sammy's childhood friend having her first child. The shower invite was the inspiration. 

So I looked at a favorite Ohio Star pattern I have made before in 6 inches.

Darling huh? 

The quilt features these 6" star blocks in golds, blues and silver. The border is a sweet sunshine and clouds in the sky. The back is tiny stars and planets on blue. 

I love to use any leftover blocks and scraps to widen the backing. 

I used more angular designs in the border versus curvy. Good old Clamshells quilting thru the body is a good solid choice. 

Four Patch in Solids

 Made completely from the scraps of recently completed garlic knots quilt. AMISH GARLIC KNOTS

Of course all that white gave me a canvas to practice my free motion quilting!

The fabrics were from a made abroad 2.55" set of solids. 

I like to finish borders on the Juki sewing machine while tge body of the quilt is easy to sew on the Jazz2 on the frame.

Completely Scraps

 From the three inch scraps box! 

Simple 3 inch scrap squares, a border and simple quilting make this generous lap quilt special and  unique. 

Anything goes in this bright quilt made completely if scraps cut from the leftovers if other projects. Cut 3" to finish 2 and a half. 

Quilted in simple loops in the squares on my frame (How did I quilt before the frame?) Then having funfunfun on the plain cheerful borders on the Juki.
