    Default Who Made This Carpentar Star

    I am interested in replicating this quilt that was posted a while back. I want to make it for my queen bed, but I don't know what the fabric requirements and cutting instructions are. Can anyone provide the instructions or let me know where I can get it?...Thanks so much.

    Just ask Mr. Google ... and you'll find lots of Carpenter Star patterns, including the giant ones to cover a bed.

    I used the reference sheet mentioned by quiltnNan to make this Carpenters Star for my son and his wife for their king-sized bed. I used the diagram for the star and the rest I improvised. I used 5 inch (finished) squares. These photos were posted a while back; one on their bed and the other with my boys - both over 6 ft tall!
