This is great; I even love purple and green together. I think not adding the size is smart; keeps us from limiting ourselves. Thank you.

Thanks for the pic, make it much easier to visualize.

Love your tutorial for the Carpenter's Block

Thank you so much. My daughter wants me to make her a quilt from this. Do you have anymore good info on it for me?
|
This is one on my to do list. I have always loved this block. Thanks for all the information.
|
So glad you posted this. I was planning on making a reference and just haven't had time.
|
Thank you. Have been wanting to do one of these but didn't think I needed a book purchase to do it. You are great
|
Thank you!
|
This is wonderful...thank you for sharing...
|
This is great! Thank you for sharing it. Now I need to figure out how to print just your picture without all the messages!
|
Thanks. We can make the squares any size we want.

I right clicked on the picture and saved it or you can email it to yourself, then open it from the email or where ever you saved it and print. (I tried right clicking print, but got the messages too. I'm challenged what can I say.)

Thanks so much for the pattern...have a summery one cut out ...shades of turqoise green and terra cotta on white...so far so good...still working on it...;)
|
Oh - so glad this surfaced again. My niece just asked for a quilt for her queen-sized bed and this will be perfect! Thanks!!
|
thanks. I printed it out.
|
One can't go wrong with HST's. I was thinking this block, in R/W/B would make a nice patriotic quilt. Thank you for the graph
|
This is an older thread, but I wanted to bump it up as I found it very helpful. Thank you!
|
Wow, this is so nice, I have admired this pattern.....and what skill you have.......calla
|
Awesome! Thanks for sharing:)
|
I sort of came to this same conclusion a few years ago, but, never got around to stating how many blocks of each I would need. Thank you.
|
thanks what a great reference sheet
|
I just found this. Thank you so much!
|
I made my first carpenter star using this pattern. It came out great. Now I want to make a full size quilt for my bed.
Not sure what size blocks I should use. I just want the pattern on the center of the bed. If anyone has any ideas Please let me know. Thank you |
Thanks that looks great!
|
I used 6 - 1/2" blocks and ended up with the star 48" square before any borders. That would work great to cover the center of a double bed. I'd suggest measuring the top of your bed and divide by 8 to get an approximate block size.
|
Thank you so much Belfrybat for bringing back this tut. It is a beautiful quilt and by going to the different web sites these posts have provided I have found so much information. I've been quilting for almost years, but have yet to cut triangles - they intimidate me so much, but I think I will try this pattern and see if I can do it. Marcia

Thank You for this tutorial on the carpenter star. I was just wondering this block.
|
Thanks so much for the pattern!!
|
Boy am I glad this has been brought to light again, want to make one so bad.
Thank you for the great directions and graph to follow. |
Thank you for drafting this up!
|
Thank you for the tutorial. I have seen these quilts and have wanted to try one but haven't had the time. My niece is getting in dec and this will be her wedding quilt from me.
|
Thank you for this easy analysis of a difficult looking block? Perfect reference!
