It was a VERY busy sewing day :) I like it that way! First I sewed the binding on the Stars of the Barnyard quilt and then finished it off by hand. I really like the hand sewing part!

Once I got this baby done, I started on the Baby Barnyard quilt. The Baby Barnyard is made from scraps from the Stars of the Barnyard quilt...even the back. I made 1.5" red gingham sashing and a 3" border, also in gingham. I did have to make the two little blocks on either side of the animal block in the center. They were a bit more difficult than I thought they would be :p In keeping with my frugal goal, I went totally scrappy for the binding. There were two fabrics from the Stars of the barnyard that I did not use in the Stars of the Barnyard quilt that I used here in the Baby Barnyard. They were too girly for the little boy for whome the Stars of the Barnyard is for. Here is the photo shoot.
