Hi everyone,,,,,,, this is my latest finished project,,,,,,,, the pattern is called Starlight Express and its from a book called Jelly Roll quilts by Pam and Nicki Lintott,,,,,,,I added an extra border to make it a little bigger as the finished project was only 72 x 72,,,,,, mine is 90 x 90 finished size,,,,,,,, the material I used was purchased from Connecting Threads,,,,,,,,Canterbury collection,,,,,,,,,, I just love their material,,,,,,, and the cheap shipping to Canada is very appealing too,,,,,,,,, thx for looking,,

Love your quilt!!!!! Makes me want one just like it! Thanks for the inspiration:)

Very pretty! I like how you used the various fabrics of the stars in the sashing.

Very nice quilt!

I love it! Gotta move that pattern closer to the top of my list.

Love it - great job!

Just beautiful! I like Connecting Threads fabrics too!

Nice work, good color placement-this is on my list to do but I have a stack of surface design fabrics I made to use and still making more before I start. Keep on quilting! Moosegirl

beatiful!!

So pretty, love the colors...........Michele

beautiful

Great job. I have been looking at that pattern too - I have the same book. How difficult was it to do the stars? I have attempted stars before - they take so long to line up and then I have the dreaded Y seam - tell me that this pattern is easier.

I'm happy to tell you that this pattern is extremely easy,,,,,,,, there are NO y seams,,,,,,,,,,, this book is fabulous,,,,,definitely worth every penny I paid for it

Beautiful!

Love the colors!

Very pretty!

Very pretty. Gotta admit though when I read Starlight Express I was thinking trains and Andrew Lloyd Weber. LOL!

It's really beautiful. Love the fabrics.

I KNEW I shoulda bought that book! I wonder if I cam get the pattern as a download. I must have it. I have the perfect fabric for it.

I hope mine will turn out as good as yours. It looks amazing.

You did a wonderful job. We did this on a retreat onetime and I found it great fun. Love your colors. Thank you for sharing.

Love your quilt!

very beautiful!...great job

Beautiful quilt!

Ok - I have this book and I attempted this pattern this last week - Ugh... I am having such a hard time with the diamonds- I made the large diamond blocks and added the x and y borders then when I sew the 4 pieces together - it gets poufy in the middle where the diamonds line up - is there a secret? I have one of the star blocks done and started another one and its not as poufy - but I find this to be very frustrating - help!!!

very pretty quilt!

are you using the scant 1/4 inch seam allowance? i really didnt have any trouble with my diamonds at all

Love it. This Star pattern is on my to do list.

I have that one in the works now! But I am going to be adding more stars for mine. I want mine to fit on our king!

Yours is great looking!

I got the book last weekend. Im going to make mine with 6 or 9 stars. Just have to decide what I want to use out of my stash

Yes, I did 1/4 inch seams but lining up the diamonds takes me forever - I have to fit every one of them - I carefully cut them and checked the angle almost every cut. I think this pattern is not my forte.

It's beautiful...I want one like it, too! Thanks for sharing,

Beautiful stars! Great fabrics and colors, I really like the quality of their fabrics too and the price is unbeatable, especially when they clear them out at under 3.00 a yard.

Beautiful quilt!
