Just finished piecing this Hunter Star Table Topper. I loved the piecing process but I am stuck as to how to quilt it. For all you Hunter Star pros....do you have a favorite quilting design for this block......my fmq skills are very limited and I don't want to mess this up :)

Very pretty, I've never done one myself. Maybe in the future, lol.

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Thats really pretty! I haven't done this pattern either. It lends itself to quilting around the red stars and then a swirly type design in the creme and green.....or you could QID ....or you could even cross hatch it after quilting around the red stars....thats how I might do it if I was looking for quick, easy and pretty. Whatever you decide will be really pretty though. Good job!

Very pretty!

kathy 09-25-2010 06:46 AM

well I have a black and white that I haven't quilted yet because I'm waiting to be struck with an idea. Did you paper piece or just cut the shapes and piece?

wolfkitty 09-25-2010 06:50 AM

Beautiful piecework! I love it! Sorry I can't help you with the quilting part, though!

Lynneander 09-25-2010 06:59 AM

This is beautiful. I have never tried this block yet, I really like the way yours looks and I love your choice of colors.

You've done a beautiful job with this! I haven't done this pattern yet but my sister has. She stitched the stars 1/4" on the inside and the she SID for the rest and it turn out beautiful. I think it will be beautiful no matter how you quilt it. :)

Your table topper is beautiful. I love the colors and that pattern is on my to do list. I'll have to live to be 250 to finish my list if I don't add any to it.

Kathy....it isn't paper pieced...I made it using Deb Tucker's Rapid Fire ruler. I love the ruler....it is so easy to use.


Thank you everyone for all your wonderful comments...much appreciated. I have to decided to outline the stars and I found a stencil I am going to use on the green and cream.....hopefully it will all work out.

Thanks Again.

There are a couple here that show quilting on them....
Funny I just ordered and received the ruler and 2 patterns from this site! Yours turned out real nice!

Barbm 09-27-2010 05:40 AM

Barb- that looks great! I made one in the first class I ever took. That said, I was a newbie then and only did a "grid" every 2 inches.

Love the pug baby! What's his/her name? We have Crouton, age 12. Just love them, they have such personality!

Boy, you are good. I have the ruler from Deb Tucker for Hunter's Star, and have yet to take it out of the package. I am just a skeeredy cat.
