Stars and a Scooter

Continuing with a blast from the past-my blue/mauve collection left from the 90's.  While digging through my bin of blue and mauve's I found 18 star blocks all pieced, I added 6 more and some sashings. And why not use more of those fabrics for a piano key border and a pieced back!  Even if these are not current colors I think it turned out really cute! 


I decided to keep the quilting simple with just a large stipple so I can get this out the door to Project Linus.





And here comes the Scooter- A free pattern by Lindsey Weight at Fort Worth Fabric.  What a fun quick quilt to make up for baby!  This is the first done of the three I have pieced lately.  You could make this totally scrappy or a little scrappy(which is what I did). 


When it came time to take pictures, I mentioned to DH that I needed to come up with better ways to take pictures instead of just throwing the quilts on the deck or ground/snow.  He said how about the bright orange grandson's sled. Wow it worked perfectly for color!



An allover freehand flower complimented the orange outside border fabric.
