For me, quilting has always been a process - something I worked through until I liked the results and called it finished. The process usually starts with some inspiration (see the picture below - upper right) - in the case of my latest quilt the inspiration was a quilt from Crazy Mom Quilts at crazymomquilts.blogspot.com. My quilt started as a simple quilt with one row of sort of wonky blocks paired with a large block of fabric. As you can see, Master Yoda was my first block.

It's really rough and I wasn't totally in love with it -- I needed help. So, I emailed the picture of my 'prototype I' StarWars quilt to my quilting gal-friends and got lots of feedback. And, now the 'process' continues.
With some tweaking and redesigning - there will be final pictures posted on Monday.
That is if the 'Force' is with me . . . . .
Stitcher's Joint Project - 24 receiving blankies for a local teen pregnancy center. Made over three weeks and we sewed a little bit of love into each one. Bib & burp-cloths are our next project.
