Oh, I may get in trouble for posting this by some fellow quilters. I had some Friendship Star blocks from a swap I was in, they were 12.5 inch blocks. They were too big for me, beautiful fabrics, but just too big of a block.

So I cut them up and re-assembled them. I really like the look of this quilt top. It is not a traditional pattern but there is a pattern and the colors are wonderful.

I hope you enjoy.

Well done! I love the way it came out - and great thinking :) It really does go to show that the d4p is great no matter what the block is! I think it adds a bit of fun to it :)

that is a great quilt

Lacelady 02-09-2011 02:51 PM

I like it too - can you show us what the original blocks looked like, or have you cut them all up now.

If not, did you do it exactly like the instructions for a D9P?

You could become a pattern designer and make money from this idea. People would buy it. Pretty.

jdiane318 02-09-2011 05:42 PM

You could call it 'Fractured Stars' and I love it. Great way to make lemonade from your lemons.

Wendy Gordon 02-09-2011 05:50 PM

Well done, you must be a creative type to think to cut the blocks and re-piece. I love the overall look of this quilt top....cheers

You really added interest to what is usually a fairly plain block. My applause for thinking of it.

Beautiful! I love the dimensions so cool!

earthwalker 02-09-2011 11:27 PM

Really pretty and very creative...well done!

chickadeee55 02-10-2011 03:36 AM

Thanks everyone. I called it Scattered Friendships because they were Friendship Star Blocks and after they were cut into four sections and re set, they were scattered across the quilt top. And all the friends are from different states.
You guys sure give a person encouragement. Thank you.
