This Vintage Block is Updated for Today’s Quilters

Quilting Digest | January 4, 2019 | Quilt Blocks

Two Sizes Are Provided for a Variety of Projects!

A popular vintage pattern for this charming block has been updated for today’s quilters. Originally called Star of Bethlehem, this version, designed by Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnet, is called Grandma’s Star.

Lori made blocks in two sizes using selections from her Farm Girl Vintage fabric line (available here while supplies last).

The colorful prints have a distinctly vintage feel that works perfectly in this block.

Many fabric styles and color themes will be lovely, too. Choose your favorites and make as many blocks as you need for your project. The block will be lovely in many types of projects, including a full sized quilt.

Since there are so many seams, Lori presses them open for a flatter block. She provides instructions for both a 6″ and 12″ block.

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. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
