10 little stars (WIP Wednesday)

Between the red and green stars and the (freshly fallen!) snow you might think this is a Christmas post. It isn't, at least, not yet. The stars are going to become part of a larger quilt called "Wish Upon a Star" and I am making it in a Christmas colour palette. But it won't be finished for a long time. I am working on it as part of a BOM rehab taking place in my online quilt group. The pattern isn't really intended as a BOM but it is a sampler-type quilt, so it easy enough to break down. I purchased the pattern intending to make the quilt up in traditional, Civil War repro-type fabrics but I am actually making it using my contemporary fabric stash. I'm excited to see how "traditional" block patterns come out in today's prints.

As for the snow? We live in Alberta...we just have to wait for 15 minutes for the weather to change.

Linking up to WIP Wednesday!

  1. Pretty stars and it's nice to work on a holiday quilt when it isn't the holiday season and the pressure to finish has lifted.
