Star Fruit

Meet Star Fruit:

Star Fruit is another pattern that I designed for a swap.
 
My original mug rug, I used my favorite Anna Maria Horner collection, Good Folks, though I think if I did it over, I’d add more solids so the design popped more. 😉
 
Star Fruit mini quilt I made for a swap in maybe 2013?

I DO love this and hope Courtney loves this too! (oh man, this was SOO many years ago! Sometimes I wonder if other people keep their swap items?? We still use the bags, pouches, placemats, cloth napkins, pillows… what else, key fobs, pincushions, hot pads, that I received in all the swaps over the years. It’s so fun to be surrounded by the awesome things people have made!

My most recent version of this block was for my Home Lovin quilt and I absolutely LOVE it!!

I also made a baby quilt with this block. I really love the concept of using only parts of the block to go across the bottom of quilts, or down the side. I think it would look even better in a larger quilt!

We are still using this quilt! My youngest had it on his bed all winter. Though I think he’s finally starting to outgrow it. Sad day. lol

 
Here are some more design ideas… The one in the upper left definitely looks like fruit to me, hence where the name came from. 😉

Your Star Fruit projects:

I just love these so much! I knwo I say this with all of the patterns, but each pattern is so different, so I can. 😉

What do you think??

Do you think the patter fits the name?
 
Do you like the idea of only using the pattern on a portion of the quilt instead of making enough blocks for the entire quilt?

I’d love to hear what you think!

Do you like it?!

Which project is your favorite?
