Showcase Retro Prints in This Pretty Star Quilt

Other Fabric Styles Will be Wonderful Too!
Easy star blocks in reproduction fabrics come together in a lovely quilt. The pieced border adds to its vintage charm and helps to evoke a simpler time.
Soft yellow is a wonderful background for the designer’s chosen fabrics. It gives the quilt a warm and happy personality that will cheer any room.
Other backgrounds will be lovely too. Choose a soft color that contrasts well with the star patches (a variety of fat quarters gives the quilt a scrappy look). Whatever color you choose will pull the scrappy patches together and unify the quilt.
The finished quilt, designed by Darlene Zimmerman for American Patchwork & Quilting, is 56 1⁄2″ × 72 1⁄2″.
