This quilt is a new favorite. I already plan on making another one in the near future. Except larger. And more stars.
I got the basic idea from an old quilting book. It called for piecing the strips and then cutting using a template. I foundation pieced the small strings and just used measurements to cut the star pieces.

The partial seams weren’t as bad as I expected and the whole thing is finished now. Right down to the scrappy binding.
This makes 47 of 52.

Very attractive and bright! I might try it with HST strings – I have plenty of strings! I like the pieced inner border with it, too.
Really nice!
I would not like the middle, thick and hard to sew together as my spiderweb pattern! Ouch!
I had similar thoughts.
The center wasn’t as hard to manage as I anticipated. The muslin used for foundation piecing was very light. I sort of spiraled the center for pressing and things laid out well. The quilting wasn’t too hard and I take that as a good sign.
It is bright, cheery, and beautiful. I love seeing scrappy projects turn into such a beautiful finish! The white really sets off the colors, as does the narrow scrappy border & binding. Lovely!! I do wonder about the comment by TWEMYSS, and the thick middle portion…..how tough was it???
Hi, just enjoying this eye candy…yummy, This is a very pretty quilt…definitely going to try it soon as I have a baby quilt to make for a shower gift in January and this is it! Yeah! I am also almost finished my Black background Calico Rose and it is a totally different quilt top then with white as a background…it has black arrows pointing north , south, east and west that are very dominant.
Have a great big smilie day!
