Ready for Another Quilt Along? Thank your Lucky Stars!

Summer is a great time to start a new quilt. With more lazy days and fewer responsibilities you can sew to your heart’s content! Luckily, my friends Heather and Megan over at Quilt Story are launching a brand new summer quilt along. They are calling it Lucky Stars featuring Bonnie and Camille’s Happy Go Lucky line.

Heather’s Patriotic Lucky Stars

Heather has chosen to make her quilt in patriotic red, white and blue.

Megan has made hers in shades of aqua, lime and navy with a hint of yellow and grey:

Aren’t they both fabulous? And so different from the same set of precuts!

Heather and Megan have asked me to provide some fabric for the quilt along and I’m happy to oblige. I’ve put together a starter kit combo of one Jelly Roll and one Layer Cake of Happy Go Lucky which will allow you to make either quilt! All you have to do is add 2.5 yards background fabric in whichever color scheme you wish.

I’ve selected a few coordinating prints that you can choose for background, binding or backing.

Heather chose light aqua penny dots for her background while Megan chose the darker navy penny dots for hers.
