My oldest friend (in terms of how long I have known her) is having her first grandson next month. Here is the finished quilt top. I was going to add another border (red) but after I put the blue one on, the quilt said it was finished :lol:

Any suggestions on how to quilt it? I'm thinking of hand quilting as I can do a better job at that as opposed to machine quilting.....

How big are the red stars approx? I think I'd start with quilting a ¼" echo around them and then see what else it needs. I really like the way the blue star forms in the background. I agree the blue border is nice & maybe bind it with the red?

The star blocks are each 12" with the border at 3" (finished). I have enough of the blue fabric for the backing. And the red would be cute for the binding and echo quilting is maybe all it needs....Thanks! :D

Sometimes I tend to "over think" things.... :roll:

Pretty!

Oh my that is just so pretty

Maybe some baby foot prints in the large squares.

I love it!

Oh, it's so cute! Your hand quilting will be such a special touch. Don't forget to show us. You know how hand quilting makes me drool!

I love it!!
Great for a baby boy!

Sewjoyce...what a pretty little quilt for a new GB. Love the star around the star. I also think echo is the way to go.
