Wow, this is so cool ohio star with rail fence! Also she has a tutorial for us to make these blocks.

I love this site!

If you make any of these, please post a picture on her website and post a picture here so we can all enjoy looking at the beautiful quilts.

Oh my goodness -- that is truly gorgeous. I'm thinking WALL HANGING -- Just use the 4 stars and then frame with the rails.... :D

I'm in the middle of quilting this pattern right now, although not quite as large as hers. Just love the design! 6" Ohio stars were a might challenging for me but I muddled through.
The photos don't show real well, but the blues are stippled (my first real attempt) and the red stripes have a free-motion curlycue with a star (some chalk marks are visible). Blue border will have the same design only larger. Not sure what to do with the whites yet.....suggestions?
Ohhhh's and ahhhh's are welcome! :-)

You did a beautiful job. I hope, when I make it, it turns out as good as yours.

I have made two of this quilt pattern in the same colors. I absolutely love the pattern, it is so easy with just two blocks and works up quickly with rotary cutting methods.

I did my Ohio Stars with strips, marked for HSTs, sewn and cut open then sewn again in the middle with opposite colors faceing each other.

I am going to attempt this quilt in just blue and white in the near future, with the red being replaced by a blue/white print.

Yellows would be a great replacement for the red too (IMHO anyway--LOL)!

Bonnie Hunter has one of the best online quilting sites. She has a new quilting book out now too. She is generous with her quilting patterns and offers most of them for fee.
