I've been off board for a couple of weeks--youngest son got married with lots of guests in and out over a 10 day period. Decided to pull out this EQ UFO project. Had all the pieces cut and half the checker board squares sewn. I am now working on the star blocks and then can start sewing together. I'm thinking of doing this QAYG. And yes all from scraps--some Jo Morton, Thimbleberries, CW and KT fabrics. Many have been gifted to me. Basic cut is 2 1/2" so a great way to use up all those bits of binding leftovers. Was inspired by this Barbara Brackman quilt

OK,
Lovely as always. Enjoy seeing your work. You get lots accomplished. |
OK,
What a beautiful quilt! If those are all 2-1/2" charms then it looks like each block is 8" square. What I would like to know is where did you get the pattern for the star blocks. I think I can figure it out, star block, would use 1-1/2" charms and 2-1/2" hst. Oops, it looks like I have a full bucket! I guess it's ok to have two bucket lists? Thanks for posting your quilt. |

The star points on both blocks are flying geese blocks. I cut sky triangles (HST) from EZ Angle ruler using a 2 1/2" cut of fabric 13" long. Goose triangles from the EZ Companion ruler also using 2 1/2" cut 24" long to yield 4 triangles and 4 corner squares. Those leftover 2 1/2" binding strips come in handy. Center square is 4 1/2". [ATTACH=CONFIG]481627[/ATTACH] You need 71 large checkerboards; 50 Evening star blocks; and 22 checkerboard star blocks. So start sorting 2 1/2" and a few 1 1/2" strips into lights and darks.... |
Love all the inspiration I get here !!!!!!!!!!
