A New Quilt!

So this is my son, holding up the quilt in our backyard, the back is covered with angels. So it seems fitting that my youngest angel would help me!
I had this fabric for awhile. I made my mother a quilt with using the background squares it turned out lovely but I wanted to do something a little different for myself. I have actually had these squares cut for me and they have patiently been waiting to be assembled for many years. So I went digging through my old quilt magazines and found this idea. I of course changed it from the original idea , because this is what I do, and I am pleased with how it turned out.

In this picture you can see that I quilted swirls and stars in the background. I had such fun making this quilt. This was yet another old project that I have now completed - Yahoo!
