Last year I joined in with Terry's Charming Stars Sew-A-Long
now all my stars are joined together and borders added
It's very soft and pretty ... I used a range called "Papillon"
and the pattern is from Moda HERE

I think it will be fun to quilt too....
Thanks Terry..... I started Scrappy Stars the year before and those blocks are still being made (though mine are squares instead of Stars)...
I wanted to do some mindless piecing the other day so I made 11 more of these... I think I have all 81 that I wanted now
and this year Terry is going to do a lovely nine patch/snowball one with scraps .... tempting???? My scrappy quilts are always very scrappy ....
Thanks Terry..... I love your sewalongs, scrappy makes and low stress
Righto, Gotto Go.... I have pinned a scrappy quilt which has been waiting a couple of years and want to get it quilted (Bonnie's Trip Around the World)
I always start the year trying to get some UFO's done...
Righto, Gotto Go.... quilt, quilt, quilt.... after coffee .....

Looks like you have made a good start to your quilting year!
Oh I like your scrappy squares! How do they look laid out together? I might have to start on one of those soon! :0) I'm so glad you've enjoyed the sew-alongs...I love seeing all the quilts made by everyone!
Beautiful quilts ... using stash ... economical ... on a winner!
Look forward to seeing how you quilt them.
good morning Fiona wow i love these quilts and the first one the fabrics are beautiful,you sure are on a roll my friend.xx
Sounds like you have lots to do today so I won't keep you. Charming Stars does look very charming and I can't believe that you have finished the top already. That Trip Around the World still calls to me.
Great job on the scrappy stars! Mine is in a pile waiting to be quilted. now I'm ready for the next challenge.
Your charming stars are wonderful and your not quite star blocks look terrific too , I do love scrappy . Hugs Sheila
You are definitely succeeding in getting some quilts done. Love 3 Sisters fabric, one of my favourite fabric designers. I need to get back to my charming stars too. Hugs......
Love the way the stars have come together. Great result. And I also like the scrappy stars/squares. 81 blocks sounds like a good sized quilt.
Have fun quilting your Trip Around The World.
I do enjoy the scrappy look of quilts and of course they use up so many scraps!!
Your stars a long quilt is very pretty....love the big trip around the world...you must be making a big dint in your scraps!!

Beautiful! I actually have a Trip Around the World that I'm (still) working on using Papillon (LOVE that fabric range). I had to visit Terry's blog and will probably sign up for Snowballs!
Love your version of scrappy stars Fiona. I have a soft spot for scrap quilts I must admit
Bubz Boo are fantastic xx
Wow you are certainly busy, love the quilts, I also loved the folded hexagons in your previous post, must take a peek at the tutorial, thanks :-) xcx

Lovely, great pop of red.
Great finishes (love scrappy stars especially) and lots of fun coming up with quilt alongs. I seriously need to downsize my scrap collection too so think I will join you in the snowball and nine back quilt along, thanks for the link.
Love your Stars quilt. Blocks look great too. I'm thinking of joining Terry for the snowball quilt. See how i go i need to catch up quite a few things & get some swaps out. Hugs,xx
Your Stars are looking great and I will join Terry with the ninepatch/snowball flimsy but will be making mine scrappy.
Have done a Scrappy Round the World too . Always a fabulous way to use up scraps.
Dear Fiona,
lovely projects, you will have some beautiful finishes soon.
Greetings,
Sylvia
