So pretty!

Jane Quilter

had you always planned on making it into a stack and wack or did the forum introduce you to the idea here. Either way, it is a fabulous quilt. Please be sure to show us when it is done being quilted and post it in the forums quilt gallery.

I made 2 S&Ws and love them. Yours is beautiful and adds a new dimension to a design. I used the Deb Tucker ruler and found it very easy. No Y seams. How did you construct yours? I love the 24" center star. Just beautiful.

Your quilt and the original fabric are absolutely beautiful and go so well with the white background.

Beautiful quilt! So summer like in the bright colors. I look forward to seeing it when it comes back from the quilter. Not sure why my post has hyperlinked to ebay... I can't get rid of it!

Camille, there are no y-seams in this quilt. I constructed it using triangles and then joining quadrants. I have done several things using S&W technique, including table toppers, DPs, 4-patch posies, paper piecing, etc. Jane, I chose this fabric to be a S&W because I had seen one with a large LM star medallion once upon a time and this fabric resembled what was used. The similarities ended there, however. I first learned of the S&W technique while cruising the internet and looking for information about quilting as I have sewn all my life. The process has so intrigued me that I am pretty much limiting projects to those in which the technique can be utilized. I have used S&W blocks and combined them with alternating blocks of a different nature, etc. I actually learned by watching youtube videos and then I ordered the books. I have never done a one-block wonder setting even though this is the first book I purchased.

Thank you for the nice comments. I really appreciate the comments that helped me decide this setting.
