Asterisk Quilt is Complete!

Asterisk Quilt


I LOVE this quilt!  Each and every block is so different.  There are different greens and purples and greys, but it works!

Asterisk Quilt Complete

The ladies from the Quilting for Kids group did an awesome job.  I can't tell you how thankful I am that you all pitched in to make this quilt for "T."  (Read the story here.)

I only had a problem with one of the blocks being a little small, but the rest were perfect.  Do you know how easy it made the piecing?

Back of the quilt

Sarah sent me a surprise with her block.  She sent me 2 yards of this purple marble to use for the quilt.  It added a special little touch to the back.  (You can see I was about 2 inches shy on the one side, so had to add a little white.)

Quilting

Some of the asterisks were quilted on the outside, like the one above, and some on the inside like the one below.

Quilting

It was fun and easy for me to put together.  You guys did all the hard work!  Please visit the ladies who made this possible and tell them what a great job they did!
