Quilty Habit Lantern-a-long

This baby quilt was made using the first four lantern block patterns in a Lantern-a-long created and hosted by Jess at Quilty Habit. I used some Moda jelly roll strips left over from making previous quilts ( Hoopla and Me and My Sisters collections) and some 2.5" strips cut from scraps.  The purple background and purple zebra border came from my stash. The background and border looks blue in the picture, but they are really deep purple. I hope to quilt it this weekend. I have strips left for binding. The top finished at 38"x 40.5". It will be a donation baby quilt for one of the charity projects my quilt guild supports.
This was a fun pattern. Thank you Jess.
