| Lucy’s Stars Quilt |
We're taking a dive in to the gorgeous Lucy's Stars quilt, which we are about to explore today, from the talented folks at Riley Blake Designs.
A generous size quilt of 76” x 76” is the ideal throw to lap size quilt for any room in your home with timeless elegance. This is designed around a prominent layout that incorporates four unique outer star blocks and a pieced border.
Key Pattern Highlights:
- Fabric Requirements: It uses four coordinating outer block fabrics, a coordinating block and border fabric and some yardage for the background.
- Core Units: The assembly is based on classic piecing units, such as Half-Square Triangles (HSTs) and stitch and flip Flying Geese.
- Keeping all your star points sharp and aligned is important, and requires use of proper trimming, diagonal stitch lines marked, and accurate 1/4" seams.
This pattern is created in a variety of colors, from bold and scrappy to simple and soft; there's enough room here for creativity while learning the basics of piecing.
Final Thought
Lucy's Stars Quilt is a beautiful patchwork quilt that is also very creative and eye catching. This is an extremely satisfying project for intermediate quilters who want to practice their flying geese, HST, or confident quilters who want to try out precision piecing! Pick up your rotary cutter, select your favorite fabric bundle and dive into creating these stars.
