Homespun quilt for a friend
 

A friend of the family just bought a 100 year old farmhouse and I had the pleasure of seeing it in person last month.
I had a supply of homespun FQs and decided a homespun disappearing 9 patch would be fitting and doable before they come this weekend to collect some extra firewood we had. Here is the result, along with a Scandinavian folded star that I made as an ornament and package topper to match. If you have never made them, google it on YouTube. They are addicting.

OH I love homespun fabrics. they give such a warm lovely look to a quilt. Beautiful!

That quilt is perfect for an old farmhouse...well any house for that matter HaHa. I am sure they will love it :-)

Love the quilt! I just made a whole bunch of those stars. I'm giving them to my kids for their trees. It was a lot of fun.

Very pretty quilt! Great for a farmhouse.

Awesome quilt! I also love the folded ornament. They are so easy and fun to make. They both will be well received.

Now that quilt is right up my alley! How totally sweet of you to make this as a surprise for a friend, it's wonderful. Can I be your friend too?? LOL

That is so pretty! Great selection of homespuns. Did you wash and/or starch before using? I know they soften with use, but don't know what, if any, the looser weave needs before sewing.

That is a great looking quilt.
