A Lovely Old Pattern Updated for Today’s Quilters

Go Classic, Retro or Modern When Selecting Fabrics!
While this quilt was inspired by an antique pattern, construction has been updated to make it easy to complete. The scrappy look just adds to the appeal of this refreshing take on an old classic.
Select scraps from your stash and a beautiful print for the border. Or, make it up in a coordinated color combination. Either way you’ll have a gorgeous quilt once you’re done.
Designer Natalie Earnheart chose prints with a bit of periwinkle for each star to tie the top together with the border. The result is a lovely quilt with an old-fashioned feel.
Modern vividly-colored prints would also be stunning in this quilt. It would take on an entirely different look and feel while being just as appealing.
The finished quilt is 86″ x 98″.
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources.
