eo-2 Ladder to the Stars Top Assembly

To assemble the Ladders to the Stars quilt top, I  started by first laying out the blocks to try to get both a visible pattern and also a distribution of the dark colors.

I added the border blocks to the star blocks once I had a sense for the general layout. Then, I stitched the quilt together in rows. This seemed to work okay - because the pattern is so square.

Overall, the quilt top came together nicely. The tips of the stars in the square block are flat, because of the trimming I had to do on the individual squares.

The final quilt top is 60" x 60" - larger than a typical baby quilt, but close enough.
