I found this quilt in a round about way. I was listening to the Stash Resolution podcast (look for a short review later), a new podcast for me. She mentioned the blog p.s. i quilt. I went to take a look and saw this quilt was recently posted to the Moda Bakeshop.
I really like the colors of the stars and the way the quarter square triangles come together to make that odd shape in the middle of the star.
I suppose I am attracted to Christmas quilts right at the moment. Not sure why as I never thought I would make a Christmas quilt. Too much work for a month a year. I do think that the expansion of “Christmas colors” to include some blues and tints of red and green have some thing to do with it. I love the red and green color combo, but sometimes it just looks too Christmasy.

Rachel Griffith, the power house behind p.s. i quilt has shop with the whole kit available. I have never bought a kit before aqnd am sorely tempted.
I wonder how different it will be from this one if you use a kit?
The same fabric is included, so just the way I arranged them would be different. I am not going to buy the kit. You can buy it for me as a gift, though. 😉 (http://www.fatquartershop.com/store/stores_app/browse_item_details.asp?Store_Id=499&Page_Id=23&Item_Id=44211) I may make a few of the stars with dots and see how I like it. Very tempting.
