Cheery Cherries Quilt

When I finished the twin kaleidoscope quilts, I needed a break. After procrastinating on my original economy block plan for this cherry fabric, this quilt came together in record time. I found the design, the math worked for the fabric I had (which was not much of the red print), and I had the planning done in a week. Initially I made 30 blocks. Then I made 12 more and pieced the top, but it needed one more row. Fortunately I had just enough leftover pieces of green fabric to make six more blocks. Thanks to a holiday weekend, I pieced the entire top in four days. I realized I've done very few quilts where the entire quilt is the exact same block, especially in the exact same fabric and orientation.

Kaleidoscope of Stars Quilt B

This quilt is a non-identical twin to my first kaleidoscope of stars quilt. The main difference is the combination of fabrics in the blocks, which you have to look rather closely to notice.

Kaleidoscope of Stars Quilt A

After giving a quilt to my cousin for his daughter's first birthday, I knew I would need to make quilts for this baby's future siblings and cousins, and by this time, my other cousin was expecting a baby boy, so I bought some fabric...and then we moved. Baby cousin #2 is now almost 18 months old, and I've finally finished his quilt!
