Star Silhouettes

Post by purrfect-lady » Wed Jan 15, 2025 6:27 am

I started this project last June. Mainly to use up the gazillion 2- 1/2” squares that I have collected over the years.( thank you, MQ!). It is composed of 347 4-inch blocks. Each block uses six 2-1/2” squares. This is around 2200 squares. As I inspected it this morning I see I have 12 blocks throughout the Quilt turned the wrong direction and it interrupts the patchwork star patterns. So I have a little work left to do, probably tonight in the trailer. I can’t stand leaving them. This pattern was designed by Diane Harris and it was on the cover of APQ magazine, summer of 2022 issue.

Wow, it's lovely!! I only see one block that looks out of place, but I don't have the pattern to compare and won't be getting it. You are an awesome quilter, MaryZ.
