Create an Inviting Quilt from Fat Quarters
Select a Lovely Combination in Your Colors!
Stars accent this quilt beautifully, floating in the open spaces between the chains. Adapted from an Irish Chain quilt, four-patches add interest to an already beautiful design.
Choose a wide variety of fat quarters for the chains and stars. The combination used here is made up of fabrics that are fairly similar in value, creating cohesive chains to contrast with the light background. Notice how there are both warm and cool colors and pops of soft black to create interest.
This is a fairly easy quilt to make and one that will go together relatively quickly. Yet, is imparts a warm and welcoming personality that will be at home just about anywhere.
The finished quilt, designed by Carrie Nelson, is 81 1/2″ x 81 1/2″.
