That is such a beautiful pattern! Nice work, too!

Thanks everyone. First I tried matching all the white, that soon got old. I had so many whites,from 4-14 inches with of fabric, I took the plung and used them. Each block has 2 light & 2 dark purple.Just did the last 3 blocks. Of course on the last one I cut a big slit with rotory cutter. Need to rip that out and replace. I do have extras. Now need to actually buy backing. Would it look odd to use different purple on the back as I want to try quilt as you go.

sahm4605 09-29-2010 05:25 PM

thank you for the up close of the blocks. I was using a different pattern that is much harder to cut out. more strips and less triangles.

Love yours! I just cut out my pieces today/tonight for my Hunter's Star quilt. I am doing 20 large blocks (12 inch) made up of the 4 smaller blocks.... I am going to paper piece it though rather than traditional piecing. I was lucky to find the pattern on quilterscache.com for the paper pieced version. And it keeps me from having too many triangles.

I saw one in multi-colors a while back and it has drawn me since then....and when I found out my nephew was diagnosed with CML, he became the next in line for a quilt and I just knew this was the pattern for him.

I have to finish quilting my current quilt and then will start piecing this one. I hope it goes fast because I really would love to have it done by Christmas!

oooooo......pretty, pretty!!! :thumbup:

quilter1430 09-29-2010 06:24 PM

Can I ask ... what method did you use to construct your stars? There are so many ways to put together a Hunter's Star. Very pretty quilt!

QuiltforPD 09-30-2010 09:37 AM

This is so nice. I LOVE this pattern. I want to make one someday. Show us the QAYG progress.

grandme26 09-30-2010 02:38 PM

I am planning on making this or at least starting on it sometime after the first of the year. Love the pattern

true4uca 05-01-2011 10:12 PM

Finally down to the last three blocks. I would like to do a pieced border. I'm thinking of doing half of the delectable mountain block (in purple & white). Do you think that would look to busy.

Beautiful--love purple
