    Default 25 Paper Pieced Stars Wallhanging

    The 25 stars in this wallhanging all came from Carol Doak’s book ’50 Fabulous Paper Pieced Stars’. The center star is a full 12-inch block, while the surrounding stars are 6-inch blocks. If you are interested in the book, note that it is very helpful to buy the Companion Foundation Factory CD that she sells on her web site. In the book, the author suggests that you take the book to a copy shop and have them remove the binding, three-hole punch the pages or spiral bind them, so they will be easier to use in a copy machine. So much easier just to get the CD, which also makes it simple to print the foundation papers in a variety of sizes.

    Here's the whole quilt:
