aunt eliza star finish

 This quilt is finished and will find a home on our bed. I really like it. I like the crumb centers for the blocks, and the scrappy star points. I used a vintage fabric for the border, and I love gingham. It is a winning combination for me. I started making this on our Christmas trip to Florida in 2015

24 yards of fabric - 82 x 92


I used a wide back from Joann and free motion hooked curves

I started sewing at camp at disney.

  4. That's a great quilt. It must have felt wonderful to use so many scrappy pieces. The gingham and red sashing and white really pulls it all together.
