St Louis Cardinals baseball quilt

 This is the last project for my cousin. I'll see her to deliver next weekend. 

She had made 6 of the star blocks. I made the rest. It's huge....about 96 x 102  .... for her bed. It is so heavy, she will never get cold.

Sorry about that birdcage blocking the top left....but all the corners are the same, so you didn't miss anything. haha

Lots of machine embroidery work here. I embroidered the letters and then cut them out and sewed them on the blue fabric.

I looked up stats to put in the quilt.

There is also blocks of peanuts and popcorn.

Had to pay some homage to Gibson and Musial.

Paul Harvey's famous saying.

She gave me the names of the players she wanted incorporated into the quilt.

Star blocks, baseball blocks, framed baseball blocks. There are 3 different baseball prints. She only had a little of one print. I found the others on eBay.

And, the back. The oldest year I saw here was 2006 so this might be some old fabric.

I used Glide white for the top thread and a dirty cream So Fine for the bobbin.
