Default Carpenter's Star Baby Quilt

I made this baby quilt using stitchinbee's directions here.

I'm very pleased with it. It went together quickly, about eleven to twelve hours total. I used the Magic Eight method for making eight HSTs at a time. Seeing that the directions called for sixteen HSTs of each color combination, I made two Magic Eights of each. I'm sure that helped save time. I used yardage instead of charm squares and trimmed the HSTs to five inches unfinished.

I have a friend who's having twin grandkids next year and I think I'll make this again. I may use just one color for the inner star and a different one for the outer star, switching colors for the second quilt.
