star pattern
 

I am looking for the name of this quilt. Does anyone reconize it?
Thanks.

Diamonds are Forever from the book String Quilt Revival by Virginia Baker & Barbara Sanders. It just so happens I have it checked out from the library right now:)

My book has a DVD in it with the pattern you can download too!

It is in the String Quilt Revival, I think it is called Diamonds.

It's just made up of the one simple block.

As long as the yellow fabric is the same size and position on every block, the secondary pattern of yellow X's/stars will emerge as in the picture.
The other fabrics look to be of varying widths (makes it easier so you DON'T have to match them up).
Just sew the on, and then trim up the block to size.

You could easily draft it yourself.

Boy it sure is pretty!

yep it is a string quilt pattern

Here's a tutorial for it:

this is amazing. How did you find this tutorial with no name?

Love this block!

Many thanks for all your responses. You have been a great help. When I made the yellow star pattern I marked mine 3". and made a lap quilt. Then I lost the pattern. It is a fun way to use up scraps.

I saw this while blog surfing awhile back -- someone else's blog had a link to it. I thought I recognized it in the original poster's picture, so I looked it up again and shared the link!

So easy to make this with strings! Can't wait to see your finished project ...
