    This quilt is 97" X 97"was made almost entirely from my scraps and stash. Some of the stars patterns came from a BOM(my fabric choices) and some were mine that I just made up. The whole quilt was my design with the chain blocks,applique and corner stone blocks. I used the sizzix big shot and a accuquilt die to cut out the petals to the daisies and the hearts are two petals put together.The corner stone blocks are 6" blocks with 40 pieces in each one. I had to redo a couple of those they were my first really complicated stars. I used a sheet set from walmart as my backing and couldn't believe that I actually from those dots that matched the rainbow fabric I was using. I was determined to have this done and on my bed by the first day of spring and I made it. I slept under it last night and it was so nice to wake up to such happy sweet colors. Thanks for looking! :-)

    This is a "feel-good" happy quilt if ever I've seen one! Beautiful.
