So I am playing a little catch up today. The Stardust Charity Quilt Along started while I was in Germany, and I missed the kickoff!!! But I spent yesterday sewing lost of lovely HST's and now I am all caught up!! This is Fat Quarter Shop's 12th Charity Quilt Along and I am just loving it :) This Charity Quilt Along benefits Make a Wish, and there have been so many wonderful Wishes granted from this Quilt Along in the past, and I can't wait to see what Wishes come true this year!!!!
So here is Block 1 and Round 1 of the this beautiful Stardust Quilt!!!! Isn't it just so pretty!!! The pattern for this month can be found right here!! And this year, the piecing is going super fast, so even if you haven't started yet (kind of like me :) you can jump in at any time and get caught up!! The quilt is beginner friendly, so we can all make a Stardust Quilt ;)
The Stardust Quilt Along starts with this basic Block. I just love it in all of it's starry goodness :) Fat Quarter shop is encouraging a donation for the use of the free quilt pattern. Please give what you are able, every little bit counts towards granting a child's wish ;) There has already been over 40,000 raised, and with Fat Quarter Shop and Moda matching those funds, it will go a long way to grant wishes!!
After making the block, you add on Round 1, which starts to create the exploding star!! If you want your Stardust Quilt to be just like the original there is a Stardust Quilt Kit and Backing Set featuring Summertime Fabrics by Camille Roskelley for Moda Fabrics. I am using Sagewood Fabrics by Crystal Manning and one of my new favorites for the background, Grunge Vanilla!! Don't those bold prints just pop!! I am so loving it.
