Default Mexican Star Pattern

Does anyone know where I can buy the Mexican Star pattern in Canada? The shipping from the States to here costs more than the pattern itself. Thanks for any help you can give.

That is a beautiful pattern, I hadn't seen it before. Here is a link to a free pattern..

You can google "free mexican star quilt pattern" to find dozens of free patterns, example above is just one. I rarely buy patterns, I always look for free versions on line..good luck.

hmmm, i think of one with folded triangles made from squares. I may have a pattern sent to me from a friend in England. will look for it. is that the one you mean? like this http://quiltingdigest.com/mexican-star-quilt/

ok, i looked and have templates for Mexican Cross. the free one listed above actually. not the one with curves made by folded squares. if you would like this, i can mail it, no problem.

Thanks, ladies. I have looked at the free patterns but the one I love is this one: http://quiltingdigest.com/mexican-star-quilt/ . I don't mind paying for the pattern; it is the price of shipping that is the deal-breaker.

I think it’s odd that it’s not available as a digital download. You could contact them & ask if that’s an option.

Here is the manufacturer of that pattern and so many more that use that same technique. In fact they have loads of really pretty designs and patterns. Why don't you contact them (there is an email address) and ask if they have .pdf version you can download or can tell you where you can buy it in Canada. they also just released a larger version called Mexican Star Dance.

Direct link to the pattern you asked about

Link to the bigger one

http://www.southwindquilts.com/shop/...e-x4571229.htm

And if you look at the top there is a contact us link.
