This Ohio Star quilt is quilted with an Ohio Star motif. The printed fabric is of old airplanes; and one of the airplanes is one that my uncle (pictured) flew as a pilot in the US Air Force. He was so excited to receive this quilt.

Mila's Fishes and Loaves

This pattern is known as Fishes and Loaves (also as 2-1/2 x 4-1/2). It a great pattern for using up scraps. It's one of my favorites for charity quilts. For this particular quilt I had four fabrics and just couldn't think of of another quilt pattern to use. Besides I needed to make it quick. And there are so many ways you can lay out the blocks. Mila is one of my youngest grand-daughters and is a little cutie.
