Wow! Great looking quilt. Doesn't look to difficult to assemble. How large for the feathered star? I think I have 18 or 20" pp pattern.

it almost looks like it might have been a round robin with each person adding to the quilt as it went along. Its really pretty!

I’m a beginner, but I want to learn how to do this!!!

I agree with you all that this is a gorgeous pattern. If anyone does find the source for a pattern, I'd love to know where it could be found.

I have fun playing with EQ7 and thought this might be a fun quilt to try to recreate.
This quilt as I saw it, finishes at 72x94 inches with these measurements for each segment. The center Feathered Star is 24 inches with a 2 inch sashing. The next gift border is 8 inches. Then a filler 2” sashing of the background fabric. This could be added to the gift boxes height making them 8 wide x 10 high. Then a 3” pieced block row on top & bottom. I was lazy & just showed it as a single fabric. Next is an 8 inch row of Christmas trees. I drew them with 1 1/2 inch at the bottom of the tree with a 1/2 inch tree trunk Then another 3” pieced block row, but on all four sides this time. Lastly a 9 inch border of the stars. I could not figure out how to leave a space in EQ between the stars so mine does not look like the original quilt. Also, I tried to draw the stars like they were sewn, but really needed a pattern. Mine are so-so. Hope this helps someone out. Edited to add: I looked at the quilt more closely and saw that there were 3 sections of the pieced row by the trees, indicating that the trees should be 9 inches tall which would add 2 more inches to the length of the quilt. Edited to Add: The trees should be 9 inches high because I can see now |
Barb, this is wonderful! I am printing off your diagram and measurements! This will be a project that gets to the top of my to-do list! You are so talented......i may play around with your dimendions...i have a pattern for a 20” feathered star, so i may try to “downsize” this a bit. I have EQ5, but there is no way I could figure this out on my own. Thank you!!!
