    Default My Hunter's Star Quilt

    I started working on my Hunter's Star quilt today. This morning I washed, dried, pressed and cut six yards of fabric into 5 inch squares. I spent the afternoon power sewing and finished all 28 of the four patch blocks. I decided to try to piece a star block. It was time consuming, but not too difficult. I like the way it turned out, but I need to work on lining up my points. I'm following the Easy Hunter's Star Tutorial by Jenny at Missouri Star Quilt Company. I really like Jenny's method for making HSTs.

    I downloaded and watched her video yesterday and wrote down all the instructions as she gave them to us. I've been wanting to make a Hunter Star for a long time and after seeing others it just makes me want to make one sooner. Have a quilt for a friend coming up soon and thought I had the pattern choosen but may change it out to this one. All he said was he wanted blues. Thinking a scrappy blue and white would look great.

    Thanks for wetting my interest again.
