I made this quilt for my mother's birthday a couple of years ago. It's a lap/grandbaby quilt, about 4 ft. square.

The pattern came from a website: http://www.oocities.com/quiltfrenzy_...iecedstar.html

There are charts to make stars of basically any size you want.

I used mostly fabrics from my stash, and scraps. After I finished I found my supply of strings to be barely depleted. I'm pretty sure they reproduce in the dark.
