My Second Feathered Star mini quilt! ( well top only so far)
 
4 Attachment(s)
I enjoyed making my first feathered so much recently I had to make another! (here is my first one
http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...r-t193582.html) Here is my second try at a feathered star. I used a different tutorial I found online, but I didn't like it near as much as the first one I used, so I won't mention which one it was. I found that pieces didn't line up near as easy or perfect, and didn't give the measurements clearly. SO... I am glad I used the other tutorial first or I might not have made another one! I want to but one of Molly McCloskey's Feathered Star books to make some more. I really want to try a really small one just to see how small I can go!

I hope you like it! It is about 28" square. (still have to quilt it)

That is amazingly wonderful. Very nice. I don't just like it, I love it.

Wonderful feathered star mini!! I have a similar pattern to PP that is a bit bigger. Pretty fabrics-I've used that lovely stripe myself.

I love that pattern - you did a wonderful job - I am afraid to do that one - I have tried the lonestar a couple of times and not been successful - if you find a good technique let us know.

Outstanding! I love the colors and the mitered border and the center medalion and the corner medalions ... It ALL works and plays together so nicely!

Well done.

I had a feathered star moment back in the fall. Home sick from work - needed a project. Your stars are beautiful - but want to see how small you can go? This is paper pieced.

I found that at Joanns in FL back in April. I only bought a yard for some dumb reason! It had fabric creations 2007 on the selvage.

It turned out great! I made a queen size pp feathered star for my daughter (never again!) and I thought I'd go crazy but it sure turned out beautiful.

Feathered Stars are so beautiful. I want to make one in the future.

Helen S 07-25-2012 06:31 PM

Very nice! I really like this pattern and can see why they call it a feathered star.

The embroidered motifs are such a great touch. So is the striped fabric. What a wonderful quilt.
