Check out Quilt in a Days book Radiant Star Quilts.
Its made with strips. Havnt done one yet but I trust El Burns patterns to be the easiest to follow. No templates needed. |
Tim did one awhile back

Those templates are exactly what I'm looking for!!!!! Thanks so much, everybody!

Are you familiar with Quiltsmart? It's a line of printed fusible interfacing which has a Mariner's Compass, amoung other patterns. Very, very easy and quick. Have done this pattern, their dahlia and their Lone Star - all are template free and make for nice sharp intersections. Check out http://www.quiltsmart.com/khxc/index...arinerscompass

One of my first quilts was a Mariner's Compass. 15 years later, I wouldn't even want to try to do one without the paper. Every seam is a bias edge. Do you hate paper piecing that much??
