This Late Bloomers quilt is on the cover of the April 2012 American Patchwork & Quilting magazine. I had put this quilt on my to do list some time ago. I like it because it has a little applique, and it is mostly pieced. There are several star blocks but the overall design is one massive star.
The guild set a challenge this year, and it is to make a star quilt. So when I found that out at the meeting last week, I knew exactly what I would do. The Star challenge is a great reason to move this quilt to the top of my to-do list. Over the past week, I've been pouring through my stash, and I've cut a complete kit. I've even traced and fused the applique the flower parts and cut them out. It's now all packed away in a nice kit, and it'll come south with me this winter.
That makes two kits that are now squirreled away. What are you doing to prepare for Winter?
