I made this Prairie Star Quilt back in 2006 at a quilt retreat - Quilts by Barb's Retreat. Barb's sister, Diane Lapacek designed the quilt.
I made the Prairie Star Quilt for my Mom. We unfolded it as it had been on the shelf for the summer and put it out on her bed.
While I was visiting my Mom this past weekend, I took several photos of it and other quilts in her home. Where does time go? Seems like I just made it!
It was a fun quilt to make and I have just ordered the quilt pattern from Diane to have in my Quilt Studio for my customers and I should have it available by mid November.
Please don't look too closely at my quilting as I quilted it way back in 2006 when it was my first years of longarm quilting.
I love the way it has aged and is all crumpled and cuddly!
I really had fun with the lazy daisy quilting and the swirls and wiggle lines back then too.
These are the 3 wall hangings that she has above her bed. I will share about the Tulip Quilt later in November.
These were 2 little wall hangings that I made from a paper pieced pattern back in 2005 or 2006.
All of November, I will be sharing quilts from my past in a celebration of my birthday month. Tentatively, on my birthday (November 24th) I will will be "re sharing" my first quilt. I made it in 1981. I will be taking new and better photos this month. I made a beautiful blue and yellow "Quilt as You Go Log Cabin Quilt". Here is the link to the post when I shared it in 2011, if you want to hop over and see it right now.
Thanks for following along!
