Star Wars and Stuff

Sometimes I would rather sew than try to shop for a gift. My Star Wars loving nephew just turned six, so I thought I'd make him something. I usually don't go all out for gifts like this, but he's special.

 Paper piecing (on a small scale) is FUN. I loved it. I found the patterns here.

My quilting sister in law sent me the backing. Thanks, Net. 
I always slap a zipper in the middle of the back. My envelope backings always look wonky, and not in a good way.

 The pattern I used calls for drawing eyes on Yoda, but I opted for wonky buttons. Much cuter. 

We don't have a lot of boy stuff in this house. I think it needs a new (less girly) home.
