****Edit: This giveaway is now closed****
Let introduce you the newest pattern to my line – Star Light. It is a pattern based on the center star of my Milky Way Medallion quilt, but utilizes a striped fabric for a completely different look.
In my test quilt I used a single striped fabric for all of the stars and alternated between black and grey for the background fabrics. In the corners where the blocks meet I used solid fabrics, but it would be a great place to use another pop of color for a completely different look.
I quilted this quilt echoing the outside of the stars and used wavy lines on the borders. I would have loved to bind the quilt in the stripe as well, but I ran
out of stripe so I had to settle for a solid black that matched the border.
The back I just had fun with and used some leftovers from the front along with some black and grey pieces from my stash. I had to buy a few pieces to finish it, but it was a great way to use up some remaining large pieces that I have sitting around.
The pattern contains 13 pages – including templates, fabric requirements and cover – of detailed step by step instructions with diagrams showing you how to make the quilt in 4 different sizes: kid, lap, twin, and queen. The pattern is made to be used with a striped fabric, but will still work with any fabric (although the stars might look a little more plain).
If you are interested in purchasing the pattern it is $8.00 and available in my Etsy Shop .
I am giving away a copy of the pattern to one lucky reader!

WOW. I have no idea what I would make it in…maybe I'll be full and say high volume blacks and charcoal. I've been wanting to do that color scheme for awhile!

I would make it in Kaffe Fasset stripes as I have been looking for the perfect pattern for them 🙂
GranChris says
I really like yours because I like bright. I might go with all black and primary colors or Tonga bright would be good. Maybe Kaffe Fasset to contrast would be fun.
