How to quilt a Hunter Star Pattern?
I just finished a Hunter Star bed runner but don't have a clue how to quilt it.
What do you think is the best and easiest, (I,m not great at FMQ) pattern to use?
Thanks,
Elaine

I just finished one. I outlined the outside of the stars. Since the units were only 6 inches, 12 finished block, the quilting worked out nicely. I did it in metallic thread, it highlighted the piece nicely.

Your quilts are always so pretty, I wonder if you wouldn't mind showing us you latest?

I went to Google and found this blog. It is how I would quilt it by stitching 1/4" inside the ditch of the stars then go looking for a stencil that will fit in the background squares.

There are few images on google that you can enlarge to see the quilting.
