Carpenter's Star help
I want to make a table topper for one of my GD using the Carpenter's Star pattern. The size should be no larger than 60" square. I have Googled for the pattern but can only find bed size patterns. Does anyone know where I can purchase a smaller size?

Just make your squares a smaller size. It's a simple pattern. You can draw it out on graph paper.

As much as I hate to buy a pattern for a classic pattern, this one has 3 sizes. The smallest is 70x 70 but you could make the borders smaller. http://webstore.quiltropolis.net/sto...39&Photo=Three

here's a free pattern almost the right size. you can leave off the two end zig zag rows to make it square.

here's her main web page with additional information about the pattern

Here are her detailed instructions. http://www.maryquilts.com/wp-content...-Star-rev1.pdf
With 8 blocks across you can make your table topper any size you want by adjusting the size of the block. 5" finished blocks would make a 40" square before borders. The 6" Mary uses makes a 48" square before borders. |
Thank you so much for the links. It is perfect. I knew I could count on you gals to have the answer.
