I am beginning a little quilt along today....
Pink STARS!!
It is a sampler type quilt.
10 different stars.....
But there are TWO of each pattern.
20 blocks total.
Here it is WITHOUT sashing or borders.
And here it is with 3” sashing, cornerstones and border.
Quilt with borders is 57”x 69”
Blocks are 9” finished.
Fabrics are all scrappy. 😊
Mostly PINK with some tans, browns....
And a tiny bit of blue.
Fabric requirements for quilt with sashing:
Background - 3 1/8 yds
Scrappy pinks, browns and blue - 3 1/2 yds.
I am using my stash as much as possible....
But I AM dreaming about adding a few new
Reproduction fabrics to my quilt!!!
Hope you’ll join me!
VARIABLE STAR - 9” finished size
Make TWO
*************
Background fabric - four - 3 1/2” squares
One - 4 3/4” square
Light pink - 3 1/2” square
Dark pink - 4 3/4” square
med. pink - 4 3/4” square
Tan - 4 3/4” square
Cut 4 3/4” squares diagonally twice into FOUR triangles.
Arrange triangles into Quarter Square triangles
And sew together.

Sew your block together!
Happy sewing!!

ReplyDeleteI love your personality and YouTube videos. Will definitely be participating with you! Looking forward to it. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying your videos. I'm glad to see you're have this sew along. I just finished my first two blocks, look forward to continuing over the next few weeks. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun quilt. I'm keen to join in.
ReplyDeleteThanks Beth! Will join and bust some stash with you
ReplyDeleteWould love to join your quilt along, I’m new to quilting and have been following your utube tutorials for a while, love your easy style sewing which certainly got me started. Will post my blocks on my blog which hasn’t been used for a while 😊 I’m in the UK
ReplyDeleteHi Beth! I have enjoyed your videos for a couple months and will plan to play along with your star quilt along. Probably blue or green for me...or maybe red/white/blue for a QOV! I am Beth S too! (I am out of town right now, so will be playing catch up next week...looking forward to it!)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a pink person, but my stash of blues and greys called out to say "use me!", and so a variation has begun...
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a lovely QAL, Beth. I've got one pink quilt on the go, so not sure that I want to start another. Especially, with my poor track record for quilt alongs!
ReplyDeleteLove it and will be quilting along with you.
ReplyDeleteI love love your youtube videos. You make it seem so easy. Although I am busy with another project, I am going to try to quilt along - as a new quilter, a sampler is such a good way for me to practise various techniques. Thanks for this.
ReplyDeleteSew fun!
ReplyDelete*Thanks for all of the work you put into videos and your blog!
I seen your Pink Stars quilt along for the first time. It was block 6, I loved it. Is there a way that I can print all the other block patterns? I have a folder that I keep all my quilt alongs in so I have them if I what to make it again. Thank you
