Night Sky QAL - Sawtooth Star Blocks

A few weeks ago I was asked if I would like to Quilt-Along with Jana Machado making Thimble Blossom's new Night Sky Pattern.   Now, if you have been around here for any time at all, you know I simply can not resist making star blocks!!!!   I whipped up some of the basic Sawtooth Stars from the pattern in fun scrappy style.   So cute!!!


Now, as much as I wanted to Quilt Along and make the entire pattern, I have a few to many deadlines looming at the moment.  But I am sure at some point int time, I will make the entire quilt for sure, cause you know, I love stars!!!  If you want to Quilt-Along  with Jana you can find all of the details about the Night Sky Quilt Along here ;) 

And lest you think those adorable Stars end up as orphan blocks, never fear :)  I purposely made them to go along with me Bees Knees quilt that I am working on for my Grandparents.   It is coming along nicely.   Just a few more blocks to come and I will be ready to put this one together.  So fun!!


So how do you feel about sewing Stars??  Love em or Leave em or Somewhere in Between????

Linking up this WIP with Lee
