I am so glad that you all enjoyed the show as much as I did. It was fun going "back home" and seeing what these girls were doing. My sister and I had a wonderful day and plan on entering the show next year if possible.

Speaking of which, that star quilt should be pretty easy to duplicate. Make 4 split quarter square triangle units, ( http://www.scrappyquilting.com/split....triangles.htm ) a finished size that is easily divisible by 2. Then cut 4 rectangles that will finish at half the size of the QST unit & sew to one side. Cut one square that will finish at a quarter the size of the QST and using a partial seam, make the block. Set them on point with sashing.
Example: make a triangle blocks that will finish at 4" (unfinished 4.5"). Cut the rectangles 2.5" X 4.5", and the square 2.5"X2.5"
Thank you for explaining this with excellent illustrations.

I have the pattern for this quilt. It is made with 6 inch blocks. n2 has done a wonderful job with the tute with a bigger block size. If you want the pattern with the diagrams for the applique (which could be enlarged on a printer) it is by Mountaintop Quilting and is called
'Sweet Nothings'.

I have been looking for this pattern for ages! Does anybody know the name or where I can find it? Love this quilt! I actually had the pattern at one time, I think it was in a QuiltMaker magazine. I can't find the magazine buy do have the one block that I made. I may have to take it apart to get the pattern!
