    Default Chester's Hunter Star

    I used Chester the bunny's illustration from her Hunter Star post. I found that 1 fat quarter approx 20X22 will do the 4 sections that make up one 18 inch square, mine came out well but I don't know if I will do a large quilt or just a pillow. I made sure I had enough fat quarters if I decide to go bigger. I couldn't resist saving the cut off corners and I think they might become a pot holder. This is a picture before sewing them together.
    I can't decide if I want to keep the 4 sections together or mix them with the other fat quarter colours. This will have to Go on my design wall until I decide.

    Note: I forget to say that it is one fat quarter of the turquoise AND one fat quarter of the background white for 4, 9 and 1/2 inch squares.

    Very nice. Keep going. Make it large. I did and love the results. You can see mine on my page. I did 100 blocks. All from the stash of batiks I seem to collect.

    Your block is very pretty! Great job!! Do continue with those great fabrics!

    Is the fabric in the pictured block a batik or print? I like the textured look of the blue - could you share the fabric company name and fabric line for this particular fabric? Thanks.
