Star Light Link up

My 2nd selection for fabrics are cut for the star light, star bright hosted by Melissa @ Happy Quilting --- I used fabrics from my stash again on this project and I was hoping to make a 3x3 layout with the 16 inch blocks. 
Apparently I took this photo before I cut the background fabric -- but I think it's going to be really cute and I am hoping that this will be a good item for a craft fair or baby shower gift. 
Well it turns out that my math skills aren't great (my guild mates hear this all the time) and I either miscounted the pieces of mis-measured the background fabric so I will only be doing a 2x2 layout without sashing -- or the sashing will be a different fabric. 
This week's assignment is to make the flying geese units. 
(Chain, chain, chain -- Jen that's for you! ;)
It was my first time using the no waste method and I really like it. Here are my results
Happy Quilting everyone -- It's not to late to join in on the sew along so pop on over and check it out. Next week is HST's and I know there is going to be a bunch of them.

  3. Great color choices! It's going to be a nice combination. I'm in that QAL but you're further along than I am.
