Stars and lobsters

My papers are done, and I'm done with studying until September. So in celebration, I finished this wonky star quilt, which will end up comforting a sick baby in the local hospital. I bordered it with a blue that fades from dark to light and tied it to a blue fleece printed with stars and moons.

Here's the back, which once was one of those smallish fleece throws no one used at my house, repurposed to become a warm and cuddly backing for this quilt.

My friend Audrey gave me a set of potholders made from the pockets of jeans, old towels, and the last bits of that lobster fabric we've been having fun with in our guild. I made her a tea cosy in trade, so we're both happy. Her tea is hot and my hands aren't. Thanks!
