Wow, I finished something!
Remember that quilt project that I was talking about in this post? The one I was going to maybe finish that weekend or soon after? Well, I didn't quite get it done as quickly as I hoped, but I finally finished it yesterday! Check it out!
The pattern is called "Hidden Star" though unfortunately the stars ended up being a lot more hidden than I had expected. If you look closely at the red fabric, those triangles do make the outline of a star, but the contrast fabric (blue with flags) isn't enough of a contrast to bring it out. Oh well. It's only a lap quilt for myself so I don't care! It's warm and snuggly and I love it! So do my kitties, and as it turns out it's a kitty cat cuddle magnet! I love to cuddle with my kitties, too bad the thing is already full of cat hair though! Drat! (Kim, does this look familiar?)
I think my next project is going to be something super cute for our baby boy! I already have some fabric in my stash that I think I'm going to use that will be perfect! I feel inspired now, I have to keep this momentum going! And hopefully keeping busy will help pass the time until he is home with me! The agony of 2 weeks with no news is killing me, what will I do for the next several months? Agh!!

I think it looks great and I can definitely see the stars. I'm impressed that you finished it. I haven't worked on mine since I posted that picture months ago.
Love the kitty in the picture also. Very cute and very familiar.
Wow, Kristin, it's beautiful. I'm so so impressed. Great idea to do one for your son. Do you have a name for him yet?
I love the quilt, you are so clever Kristin! I can imagine how special making the next one is going to be, each stitch a stitch of love... and a way to help you manage the waiting...
It's gorgeous! I am so untalented, I don't knit or quilt or anything.
