[ATTACH=CONFIG]582366[/ATTACH]Finished the border this a.m. It was patterned after Praline Parfait by Martha Cox and Barbara Huthmacher. That was published in Catalog of Show Quilts, 2005 p. 20. They gave credit to 5500 Quilt Blocks by Maggie Malone, 2003: Variation of Fancy Flowers. I added some elements from Debbie McInnis Thompson and changed the border and trellis work. Most of the fabrics are gold and brown. The setting triangles and outer border are by Blank Quilting "Honeystone". The blocks are 9 inches finished and the sashing is 2 inches finished. I also tried to follow Susan Teegarden Dissmore's book Better by the Dozen for the blocks, but in some I did my own thing. Thanks for looking.

Such a beautiful quilt and great workmanship. Thank you for sharing.

I love everything about it and I normally am not a sampler fan. Yours is perfect in every way- colors, blocks, workmanship.

This is beautiful. I have been watching it come together in different posts and it was worth the wait:-)

I finished a quilt this summer in pretty much these same colors and also is a sampler of different stars. Also is a diagonal set with sashing. We must be related somewhere along the line. Of course I think your quilt is gorgeous.

Really, really pretty and sophisticated. I love your fabrics and how you assembled them so carefully throughout. Lovely balance.

Everything about this is perfect. Normally I don’t like quilts but this one I’d like to make. Are there patters for each block😍
