Another baby blanket made from left over blocks

Another baby quilt

My niece is having a baby and her nursery colors are mint, peach and navy and flowers. I was playing with colors to see if I liked how they worked together. I might make this into a quilt for her dog so he can take a nap in his new sister's room without clashing. But most likely it will end up with all my other UFOs.

This is a baby quilt I decided to make when I found out my niece was pregnant, The picture doesn't do the colors justice.

I watched MSQC's Surprise Half Hexi tutorial and decided to do it in red, white and blue. Then lunacy struck and I thought, I should put a star on the blue. So I drew it up, turned it into a paper pieced pattern and started sewing. The first block convinced me I was crazy, by the second I gave up on perfect centers, by the 48th I decided NEVER again. Paper piecing with 10 points coming together perfectly is beyond my skill set. I used the leftover fabric that was going to be the outer border to make Boondock a quilt.
