Stars and Nines...

 I managed to make the yellow blocks I needed Sunday and decided 48x60 was going to be big enough so I laid out 20 of the blocks.

I seem to have swapped a couple of these around (left side bright green, purple, green and light blue) when I started sewing.... doesn't that always happen? I hope to get this sewn into a top later today after work. I'll have to find some snuggly cotton flannel for the backing of this. I have a roll of warm and natural and I know how I plan to quilt it. A scrappy binding will eventually finish it off.

Just caught up on your posts, Deb. As a retired educator, I can relate to your concerns and issues with the online learning. I was a reading teacher and dealt a lot with children too shy to speak up; they need lots of encouragement and reassurance to feel truly at home in school settings/situations. My daughter found the home schooling during school shut down to be very challenging to say the least!
Meanwhile, your starry blocks are so pretty!

Oh how pretty--you did a wonderful job on making all those blocks and how well they all went together--and I will tell you a secret--I can always manage to get the block placements I have laid out--mixed up--so welcome to the club!!!!
luv, di

Those are really pretty all together! I like the way the stars are in different places around the blocks - it gives your quilt lots of movement. Flannel backing and a scrappy binding sound perfect!

That's turned out really well and the cotton flannel will make for a wonderfully snuggly quilt.
