I'm getting this posted just under the wire, so I'll keep it brief! I don't have anything new to share for the Blogger's Quilt Festival, so I figured I'd show you my favorite recent finish.
This quilt is the work of the Peace Circle of do. Good Stitches, and it's off to its new home with help from the folks at My Very Own Blanket, an organization that provides quilts for children in foster care. I LOVE this quilt and really need to make one for myself!
To make the star blocks, we used this tutorial from Diary of a Flutter Kat. It makes 17.5-inch blocks, so the quilt came together really quickly.
Be sure to stop by the Blogger's Quilt Festival for endless inspiration! Voting starts soon!

I just love this one Katie!
Me, too - a superb scrap buster!
I love negative space stars! And your color choices were great, this quilt is lovely!
A wonderful cause. Good for you to support it.
I have always wanted to do a quilt with sawtooth stars embedded in a background of squares since I saw it in a book 10+ years ago. They used yellow for the stars and light to dark blue for the "sky" background. I love the rainbow colors that you used!
I really do love this quilt! Perfect one to showcase!
It s wonderful fun and colorful:)))
Best quilt ever. I plan to directly copy ;)
I love so many things about this quilt! I love colour and scappy quilts. I'm sure whoever receives it will treasure it and take comfort in it! Beautiful!
It's gorgeous! I'm always a sucker for rainbow gradation and this is killer! I admire you for making beautiful things and then giving them away. That's what it's all about!
I love rainbows and stars! Beautiful!
Beautiful quilt. I loved your star pattern being different within each colour.
Ooh, fun quilt! I've been wanting to make a star quilt, this might just be it! Love that it's a charity quilt. The foster program is special to me.
psssst...nominated you for favorite ROYGBIV and favorite bee quilt!
This is really fun! Love it.
I love looking at that quilt. I'll be helping to make up kits for our QoV group for that quilt soon. I had 2 unplanned trips to TX (FIL had bypass surgery) so, I ran out of time.
I like it a lot, too. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful quilt - love the scrappy rainbow blocks!

I was this close to entering my original version into the festival too, but decided to do my cheeky quilt instead.
This design is one of my favourites I've made though :)
