Stars and Bars, 2011 Style

When my kids' closest friends are expecting babies, if I know the parents-to-be and like them a lot, I make a quilt for the new baby.

Tom and Anastasia's friends, S&A, are expecting at long last, after some real doubts about whether this would ever happen.

I had bought this fabric about a year ago when I was visiting Tom in Richmond, knowing it would make a cute baby quilt, but not sure exactly what the design would be.  I love the richness of the batiks.  If you look closely, the background fabric is rainbow stars.  I'm going to have my machine quilter quilt stars all over and even though I don't generally go for light bindings, I'm going to bind this in the background fabric.  I have just enough.
