New quilt top--Batik Ohio Stars

 I pieced this one last week, but haven't yet been inspired with a quilting design.

The stars were made using a charm pack that was gifted to me, a few years ago, by Wanda Robinson, dear friend in Oklahoma.  After making the stars, I was in a quandry over what fabric to use as a setting background.  I was drawn to this blue and yellow calico that I had bought on clearance a few years ago, but it seemed so out of wack to combine batiks and calico.  But once I had laid it out, I knew that there was no going back.  I LOVE the look of it.  

I hope to update this post when I have quilted it.  It's quite small, around 54 inches square, but I adore lap quilts that measure anywhere from 40-60 inches square.  I have NO ONE in mind to gift it to, but that could change.  I tend to gift them on a spur-of-the-moment, so we'll see.  For now, I just enjoy the beauty, thanking God for the gift of quilt-making.
