Old Stars in a New Quilt: Market Place Quilt, May 2013

Sometime in summer 2011, someone donated a quite a few unfinished quilt blocks to A New Leash on Life Market Place. This is the first quilt made from part of that donation: 18 "Kite" blocks made from 1970's fabrics and muslin. I sewed each of them into larger, tilted blocks with fabrics from my stash, laying them out in 4 rows of 4, with each row tilted in the opposite direction. The remaining 2 blocks are on the back.

I used muslin and stash fabrics to make checkerboard bands at the top and bottom of the quilt, making the quilt into a rectangle.

Put into the MP shop in May 2013, priced at $40.
