The first 3 blocks of Emerson's quilt are made. She told me she wanted a "star quilt", but then she wanted squares. I told her to make up her little mind, and she came up with "Square Stars"....I asked her what that meant and she said, "You know, Grandma. Stars with squares in them." So, Square Stars it is! Sassy approves!

The Friendship Stars would have had squares, except I used a different technique. I always use half square trianges, but went this route instead!

It was much easier and less seams! I liked it ;)
I finished the Sailboat block on the Underground Railroad Sampler. After making an entire quilt of these blocks for TJ, it went like the breeze carrying that boat!!

I have 10 out of 16 blocks quilted. I love how each block has looked once it is quilted! Here are some of them....




Once I finish the sashing strips around the Sailboat, this is the next block in the hoop...

Goodness, who would have thought a hand quilter would have so much to share??? I had more, but it will wait til next time!
Thanks for stopping in!!!
