mexican star quilt pattern
 
Hi Everyone...........has anyone tried to turn this 36" square into a full size quilt and if so how did you do it......................

oh, add a lot!! I have yet to make one but a friend from England sent me templates and directions. If you make one up, post a pic.

There is a pattern here that makes it into an 80 x 80 or a 65 x 80

Very nice quilt. One of these days I am going to have to try that one.

I have this pattern at home... I have yet to make it though... it is on my extensive list of "projects I want to make". :D

This is scheduled to be our guild's March class. i was SO looking forward to extending the pattern! Thank you for posting the link. If anyone has the extended pattern already, could you please provide fabric requirements?

SoftBlockLady 01-17-2017 01:15 PM

I also have the regular pattern at home but would like to do the extended pattern if I can get the fabric requirements

I just got this pattern. Haven't started it yet.

I have made 3 of the regular pattern. But, now that I see that there is a larger version I am going to have to buy that and do it. It is one of my all time favorites.

I just got this as a free download but honestly haven't even looked at it because I was looking at it to see if it was the right one and it started to download so just upset me, but I am pretty sure it was a free pattern at Quilt in a Day. If that's not the right site will repost. OK so it is the right site but it's just for a 16.5 " block, which should actually make it easier for you to determine the size your looking to make.

Haven't seen it done, but the person who taught the class said he did it by making four then putting it together as four quarters.

Chester the Bunny found a really nice pattern that would work nicely.

I have made 4 wall hangings from this pattern, one in plums,one in fall colors, winter blues and white and greens with shamrocks for March! It goes together fairly fast once you get the pattern down. I would love to show pics but I am so tech challenged!

Would you mind posting a pic of just the fabric requirements? I sent the company an email because there is no description with the picture of the completed top but still no response. Thank you.

Were you able to complete the download?

Someone here on the board made a large quilt with the Mexican star pattern a few years ago. Try goolgling Mexican Star.

I just ordered this pattern:
http://www.southwindquilts.com/shop/...e-x4571229.htm

am wondering about fabric requirements as it states it'll take a coup,e of weeks to arrive. Would anyone have those? Also, has anyone found tutorials on the techniques used for this block? Thank you!
