I called Amy and was whining up a storm, seriously, she MUST just LOVE me (or my fabric stash) because she should have hung up on me but being an awesome friend, she threatened me instead :o) She said that she was going to post on her blog today about my lack of progress and that would MAKE me sew. What a true friend, a tough love, put on your big girl panties, buck up friend!!!! And that threat alone got me started up! Thank you Amy!!!! I luvz ya!
Yesterday evening, in about two hours I had these wonky stars cut out and started for the Soldier's Angels quilt(s) I will be putting together in May. I want to get a ton of them started and just pound them out but I ran out of white *eyeroll* So, I am off to Joann's today.
My mojo was so hot that it woke me up at 3am ( I had forgotten to put it on vibrate) and I was thinking about someone I have known for a long time that I just found out had a baby girl last week!!!!! I was thinking about a baby quilt and knew that the Solstice Stars quilt that I have been doing here and there was a PERFECT baby quilt so I grabbed my mojo by the ear ( it did wake me up) and finished the next star before 8am! I did have the help of some caffeine because I am cool like that ;o)
This is the Mystery Star and I think it is my favorite!
If you have not seen the other stars, here they are together and the solids I am considering for the quilt when I get the final block completed, fingers crossed, today! Every little girl should have Amy Butler, it is way better than a silly silver spoon ;o)
I had also completely forgotten, that I will be choosing another winner for the OMG I have been blogging a year giveaway on Monday if Catie cannot get her information to me by Monday :o( CATIE, please send your information before Monday!!!!!!
I hope that you all have your mojo intact but if you do not, call a good friend to kick it's tooshie!!!!!

Glad you got your mojo back! Love those stars :)
that mystery star IS gorgeous!
I know what you mean about losing your mojo. I've lost it before too. Glad it's back and you're sewing again. But ~ geez ~ waking you up at 3am, that's a bit early.
I've done the Solstice Stars too and love what you've done with yours. Beautiful!
awesome blocks!!
I have lots of mojo, but almost no time anymore. I'm afraid that by the time I get around to making my ideas realities that I won't remember what they were!
3AM wooooweee girl! Well you got some things done--- that is terrific.
Doesn't it seem we always run out of white??!
Love that mystery block it is really special:)
Very pretty and definitely better than a silver spoon!
Wow - that is going to be so beautiful! Love the last star! x Teje
Glad yours wandered home again, even if it does keep unsociable hours. Mine threatened to leave last Sunday, but I managed to placate it by telling it it could make me a start on my My Precious quilt this Sunday...
Mojo--I am still trying to tame the beast -- sometimes won't leave me alone and the next it disappears! Love those stars!
Love those star blocks! Awesome!
KIM! You woke up in the middle of the night and decided to sew?! Ha. Well, as good a time as any I suppose. The blocks are lovely.
I love the newest block!
Love those pinks and greys together, and with those beautiful blocks? Yum.
Glad your go-go mo-jo is up and running again! Those blocks are fabulous - those prints really stand out!
Wow! I LOVE LOVE LOVE those stars! Are the patterns available someplace? The fabrics are awesome!! Beautiful!!
Love the block!! And you are right, you can never have enough of Amy Butler.
Glad you found your mojo...love the mystery star
