is it hard to make a lone star quilt? my DD wants one and I have not tried this one. know where I can get the pattern? she wants one large star in the center of the quilt

I made the lone star out of the books Quilts! Quilts!! Quilts!!!

The authors used a strip piecing technique then the strip sets were cut at a 45 degree angle. I found it very easy. The only trouble I had was it volcanoed up in the center. I ripped and resewed just the center bit several times and still ended up with about an "a" cup in the center but it quilted out beautifully. I hand quilted it. Here is a picture.

that is beautiful

I love it! One day I will tackle this pattern. I love star blocks of all kinds. I think by biggest problem will be choosing the colors and placing them.

Beautiful quilt!

I just ordered this pattern, I know it will be my most challenging one yet

That is one gorgeous quilt!

WOW!!!

I am taking a class in July for this that uses Eleanor Burns' pattern book "Radiant Stars". It uses the strip piecing technique.

I made a large wall hanging years ago. I used strip piecing. It was one of the first quilts I did and it was easy, just time consuming. A friend saw it and bought it for his wife. It was hand quilted, too.
