Bowyns Stars

I made this quilt for my brother-in-law and his wife's baby, Bowyn. I just love the soft colors and florals. I was going through a floral phase when I made this. The fabric if from RJR Fabrics, that is all I can remember. This quilt is super duper simple and would be great for charm packs. I will do a tutorial on this quilt with charm packs probably in June or July when some of my charm packs I ordered come in.
This is the first quilt that I actually custom quilted. I had always done a meander on my quilts but wanted to try something new and fun. I watched a lot of youtube videos on free motion quilting and came up with these patterns to fit into the star and the borders


 Here is the backing, I actually forgot that I did the backing like this until I found these pictures. I kinda like it. good way to show off the large scale print and the border acts like a frame for it. That would be my oldest daughter Emma trying to get in on the picture. My girls LOVE quilts. I can not lay one out to take pictures or to just look at without them running on to them and wrapping themselves up in them. Makes me so happy!!
