Big Star, Little Star

I finished Morning Star 2. I really liked this block. It was easy and turned out great! But I had a little mind lapse as I was cutting out the fabrics and ended up with hour glass blocks that were too small. So I made some more the right size and completed this block.

Then I took the smaller hourglass blocks and cut them down to 3 1/2in. I made each section of this block 3 1/2 in. unfinished to end up with a 9-in. block. I used softer colours because my 9-in. blocks will be used for a baby quilt.

both blocks turned out lovely. the green fabric in each ahs real movement, and blends so wonderfully with the blues.

The teddy bears are so cute. That will be a great baby quilt. You did a great job on both blocks.

Both are nice, and it's good you saved the day with your too-small hourglasses.

Nice job, Hetty. The "Boyds Bears-ish" print is so sweet.
