The second completed quilt is Starflight, the baby quilt top I showed you a few weeks back.
This quilt started with a charm pack (the grey and white pieces) and the lime (leftover from Rowan’s quilt. Once complete, it wasn’t quite big enough, so I built it out with some pieces from my stash.
I pulled pieces that echoed the bits of red and blue in the charm pack prints.
To tie it all back together, I bound it with leftover scraps from the fat quarter prints.
You know I love to put flannel on the back of quilts, especially baby quilts… and I found this perfect piece at Lens. It wasn’t in the clearance bin, but it was on sale. The colour was ideal, and it even had bits of blue and red to echo the front.
This quilt is about 43″ square, a nice respectable size for a baby quilt!
How adorable!! I am itching to do a baby quilt, but no baby to make one for. I guess I can just have one in reserve.

That is an adorable quilt! Love how you made the fabrics work together. It’s actually large enough to be a lap/couch quilt. Somebody will be very happy with that creation.
