I’ve been having a great time working on the Kansas City Star Quilt!
This is a quilt pattern that is provided free through the Kansas City Star newspaper on a monthly basis. They do a new one every year and the patterns usually have a historical link of some kind. I’m really excited to see the new blocks each month. I’ve been using the provided fabrics from the Missouri Star Quilt Company, and watching Amy’s (our resident applique specialist!) sample blocks closely, and working hard to try to stay at least close to on time! Hahaha! I’m already two months back since the May block just came out 🙂
These blocks are done in period style fabrics, I’m thinking it would be pretty cool to see one done in brights just for the fun of it!
This is my January Block
and February’s
and March
April and May are still in the bag. 😀
I’m working on it, but it’s exciting to know that when I’m through I will have a serious treasure, that would have been quite an ordeal to attempt if I was picking up the pattern as a whole and trying to do it all at once.
Not impossible
I know 🙂 but very intimidating!
