The Star Sweeper quilt was my Island Batik Ambassador challenge quilt for April. You can read that post here: Ready Set Go Baby Quilt Featuring Star Sweeper. Today I'm going to show you some of what went into the making of this quilt.
First I moved this cat.
Then I quickly and accurately cut out my pieces with the Accuquilt Go.
I pieced this gorgeous block using Island Batik's Winter Park fabric collection.
Next, I took it apart because I misplaced some of the colors. Ooops! I got to test my new seam ripper from Quilty Box. (It works well)
I sewed all sorts of units together to make the star blocks.
I moved this cat.
I pieced the center of the quilt top.
Added the borders to finish the top.
I quilted straight lines on a diagonal out from the center. I moved this cat.
I hand stitched this spacey sleeve onto the back of the quilt.

I bet it wouldn’t have taken long for him to move once you started sewing had you not moved him. I’m glad Enzo isn’t a jumper, I’d never get anything done. I love the color combo and am very envious.
