"Cousin" Quilts
 

I made this first quilt as a paper pieced stain glass fresia star. I love the secondary pattern that has developed. I had a lot of left over fabric, so I made a quilt using the leftovers. Since the 2 quilts have so many fabrics alike, I am refering to them as cousins. In the second quilt I used a 6 1/2 inch 10 minute block. I have 2 flanges and put my most narrow border on the outside edge which is reverse of what I would usually do. I hope you like them.

Two great quilts! Good job.

Wow, both great quilts. I like the second one best (because I know I could do that one!). very nice.

I love both quilts, especially the first one.

Nicely done on both!

very nicely done, and great use of the leftovers

Gosh! Both are lovely...

Love everything about both of them!!!! Thank you for sharing them with us.

They are both lovely!

great looking cousins

It's amazing how the same fabrics can look so different. That first pattern is so unusual. Beautiful work!

Both are very pretty.

beautiful great job!!!

Both are so beautiful!

Beautiful, Tinker

They are both very pretty quilts. It must have felt really good to get two quilts out of such pretty fabric.

I really like your stain glass quilt; would share what pattern you used?

Both are beautiful, love the pattern of the 1st one, and the flanges add a very nice touch.

Beautiful quilts, similar but also quite different.

Wow...I absolutely LOVE the second one! great colors! First one is awesome too, but #2 takes the prize!

Both are great, but the second appeals more to me.

Super quilts. Both are beautiful. You are so talented. BrendaK

Awesome job!

Wowee- Awesome quilts! Love what you have created. Another reason this craft is So addictive!

The block pattern is from the book Paper Pieced Stained Glass Garden Stars by Liz Schwartz and Stephen Seifert. The block is called Freesia Star. Each quarter of a block consists of 15 pieces, so each star contains 60 pieces.

Thank you for sharing the information about the block. Off to Amazon to buy the book.

your quilts are gorgeous! I like that one in the second photo that is in the background in the same room as your fur baby also.

WOW, your first quilt is absolutely fantastic. And, what a way to use up the leftover fabrics. Good job.

both are beautiful and awesome fabric

They're beautiful. Great job, kiddo.

They are both very pretty. That was good thinking, making the second quilt!

Beautiful, both of them. Love the colors!

They are both great quilts. I especially like the first one since it resembles stained glass.

I real love your color selection. Both quilts are beautiful!
