Christmas Star Quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is one I am keeping for myself.

The pattern is in the McCalls Quilting issue of Nov/Dec 2011. It was made with Moda jelly roll, Flurries.

It is about 52" square.

Very pretty and I like the fabrics too.

Great quilt! That pattern eliminates all the seams coming together in the center like in the Lone Star but gives the same look. I'd keep it too!

btiny36 11-27-2012 06:13 AM

Wow love love it...great job...I need to look and see if I have that issue...Aw rats that magazine isn't on my list. Pout pout...oh well it's still a beautiful quilt.

First off--BEAUTIFUL QUILT!! Will have to look this one up and try! Question: I see the red and white fabric (could have been prewashed) and I see the red in the jelly roll fabric (probably not prewashed)---what's the best procedure for washing this quilt the first time to prevent bleeding? Synthrapol in hot? Anything else? Just wondering since I hold my breath everytime I wash a finished quilt for the first time. I usually do not prewash.

debcavan 11-27-2012 06:43 AM

yeah, you are keep this one. Your border really picks up the colors wonderfully. It looks great. I noticed your avatar. It is simply stunning.

BeckySt 11-27-2012 07:05 AM

Love your quilt, can't believe I missed that issue as I love stars.

nena 11-27-2012 07:08 AM

Love, Love Love this! I love the white between the points.

A1penny 11-27-2012 07:09 AM

Lady Jane 11-27-2012 07:13 AM

DebraK 11-27-2012 07:53 AM

great use of jellyroll.

mighty 11-27-2012 10:30 AM

Really beautiful quilt!!!!!

jeank 11-27-2012 01:49 PM

Thank you for all the nice comments.

I never even thought of the reds running when washed. I think I will use a color catcher.
If I use it for decoration during the season, hopefully it will not need washing too soon.
Yes, my red was prewashed, but not the jelly roll.

So pretty. I would keep it too!

Janie67 11-29-2012 05:29 AM

Very nice. I have made several similar throws out of flannel using a pattern from Country Threads. They go together quickly and are very warm and cuddly.

Quiltshaker 11-29-2012 05:32 AM

It's definitely a keeper. Very pretty. I'll have to check and see if I have that issue. Thanks.

northern lass 11-29-2012 05:36 AM

It's gorgeous. I would keep it too!
