Stars In My Eyes

A few weeks ago
a friend on facebook
asked if I would consider making her little boy
a quilt.

I of course said "YES!"
and we set to work deciding on fabric.

We narrowed the choices down
and I told Kari
I would surprise her with the quilt
once it was complete.

I finished it yesterday.
(it was so much fun to make!)

I washed it.
Got it nice and squishy and soft.

Perfect
for a sweet
baby boy.

I decided to make the quilt using Riley Blake's All Star 2 line.
It's boyish.
Retro.
Yet still hip.

I first fell in love with this fabric
when Luc made this quilt for bean.

But I have two girls.
Who already have quilts.

The pattern is simple.
It showcases the fabric nicely.

And I just loooooooooove
how the back looks.

But the quilting
is the best part.

Stars.
In three different sizes.
Randomly placed
all over the quilt.

A simple stripe on the binding finishes it nicely.

Kari,
I hope you love it!

Thank you for allowing me
to make such a precious heirloom
for your little boy.

I can't wait to see a photo of him
with his new lovey.

Cheers,
A
