Welcome to part two of aunt's week. It's really not, but apparently that's who I have been sewing for lately! My mother's sister is probably my biggest quilting fan, and purchaser. She has been asking for navy/white quilt for some time, and when the Lexington line by Moda came out this fall, I ordered it up for her. It's was exactly what she wanted.
She also liked my patriotic star quilt last year and begged for it to be hers with out any luck. So, Lexington + stars = perfect combination. I used the tutorial from Cluck Cluck Sew for the blocks. This pattern/tutorial might be my all time favorite, or it's the one I have used the most!
There will be 25 blocks in all, for a 5 x 5 arrangement, now I just need to get them finished. They are looking so good together so far, I cannot wait to see them finished. And ... more importantly, I hope that my aunt likes loves them.
- Patch & Chels
They look beautiful together, and I know your aunt will love it. :)
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog. Imagine my surprise when I saw Patch and quilts for aunts. Kismet!
ReplyDeleteLove them all together!! I still need to try this pattern out.
ReplyDeleteLove all these colours - your Aunty will be pleased :)
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love?! Beautiful fabrics, beautiful colors, and a great pattern. Can't wait to see the finish.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing better than a beautiful star quilt! I love the neutral and blue pairing. It's a winning combo!
ReplyDeleteI think I need to get myself adopted as an honorary Chelsea aunt. I love both of the auntie quilts.
ReplyDeleteLove the look of this, blues in this range are gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteThey look amazing! The pattern and the prints. Perfection. Maybe I'll make some of these blocks with my fabrics...hmm you've got me thinking now. I'm sure she is going to be absolutely over the moon with this quilt. Perfection. I'll say it again.
ReplyDeleteThe blues in this line are beautiful especially with the creams/tans. I love the stars!
