I always sang 'you are my sunshine' when rocking my GD to sleep. She is very attached to that song and now that she is a 'big' 4 year old, she has been transferred into her 'big' girls bed - twin size. Could any of you guide me to a paper pieced pattern that would have one (not blocks) big sun or star looking like sun in the middle? I am only finding block patterns.

totally off topic but I also used to sing this song to my daughter at bedtime when she was little. Now that she has a baby I will make a quilt out of a fabric line called " You are My Sunshine" Not sure but think it is Moda , out in the last year. It is bright , pretty girly prints and colors.

Just an idea ... but what about doing a 1/4 over sized Dresden Plate....Put the sun 1/4 circle in the corner make that the sun and the sunbeams?? That is the song i always have sung one of my grand-daughters as well.....yeah...welll...her mother's favorite as a baby was "What shall we do with a drunken sailor"
