pajama day

I'm still in my pajamas because I started a quilt and haven't been able to stop. Rainy days are good for sewing.


I totally love it! The pattern is Java Stars and can be found here:
the fabric is Michael Miller Sanctuary with some moda Sugar Pop and misc stuff from Joann's and Hobby Lobby.

I am going to have to shower and get dressed so I can find a solid for the border. oh, and pick up my kids from school.

what color solid would you use?

    amazing! i love the colors. i might use one of the prints from the quilt as a border. that bluish one with white print or the yellow w/ white stripes would look neat.

    awesome!! my eye is drawn to the blues so i would pick up the yellows to contrast for a border

    right now, it's 54" square. I'm going to add a solid border and then 4" squares of the prints all the way around, like the example. Then a binding. It's supposed to be 67" x 67" when finished. Gray is one of my favorite colors and I'm leaning towards that since the patchwork border will be busy and bright.

    I totally love that pattern. It was one I contemplated for my square month, but I didn't think it would work coming form 12 different people.
