Thank you for posting this easy to follow tutorial! I found it this evening and had to make one..One hour later, here is my Big Star; I have not decided if I am going to add a border or just layer, quilt and bind it.

Your directions are wonderful and I love your quilt, I wish I knew how to bookmark in this new format - but alas I don't Thanks for sharing.

Anyone have some tips for beginner quilting of this wonderful Big Star. I'm semi good at SID but TERRIBLE at FMG on my Janome 6600, thanks in advance for any help.

First time I saw this. Thanks! I was going to whip a couple of Christmas quilts for my GS's and I believe this will be it!
|
I love this star block because you can make it any size. I made the big blocks for my avatar quilt with 10" squares, then I did the small star blocks with 5" square blocks. I pieced small stars on the back of this quilt. It was fun to put together. I'm planning to make a red, white, and blue star to use as a patriotic front door decoration for the patriotic holidays.
|
Good job. Thanks!

Jeri lting along each seam line? |
Great one! I did mine with 12 in blocks. Sorry can't find pic on new Mac.
|
Isn't there a "you tube" video on making the "Carpenter Star". Am thinking you need 3 fabrics (total of 6 squares
or 2 of each fabric). This makes a quick, large block. |
This is a great pattern
|
Love your quilt - and the colors.
|
I like the result of star quilt. I'm going to try that by myself. Thanks!
|
I have made many of these....and posted a few of them on here to show...love this pattern......
|
After seeing this I'm inspired to make more of them...love this pattern.....
