Blue Stars

I finally finished piecing the blue baby quilt.  I get really giddy when I get to this point, because there's generally a lot of frustrations before I do.  But this one was easy.  Just time consuming.  I am so glad I finally gave in and started using a rotary cutter.






Probably the only quilt I've ever planned and pieced without changing my mind a hundred times.  I'm so pleased with the outcome, I actually started out this post with "look how amazing I am!"  Haha.  I'll get over it.  But maybe not until months after I've mailed it off to its new home.  Maybe years.  Come on, that's a damn fine quilt.

Hand-quilting this starting on Sunday or Monday.  Not sure if I need new thread or not.  Let's see, I've got pink, red, brown and lavender!  So, looks like I will have to make a quick stop at my favorite quilting shop in the world.  Hahahaha... quick stop.  Oh, I kill myself.
