A few years ago I designed a transparency quilt based on sawtooth stars, and made a couple of versions in a lap size. (You can see those versions
here and
here.) Having received several requests for a pattern, I am finally writing it up, and decided to create a baby-size version of the quilt as well.
This quilt is 32" x 40", and except for the backing is all Art Gallery Smooth Denims. The backing is Cotton+Steel's Les Fleurs Rosa in Peach.
For batting, I used Quilters Dream Pink 80/20 for the first time. It is a lighter loft than I usually use, but it was the perfect size and the perfect price (free swag from Quiltcon). With the solid fabrics, the quilting still shows up well.
I quilted rays in the background, as in the previous two quilts, but used slightly different fills this time.
I filled the large star with peacock plumes.
This is an easy quilt to make; the key is in the fabric selection.
If you are interested in pattern testing for me, please let me know. (I can offer the PDF pattern and some publicity here on the blog and on Instagram in return.) The
pattern is now available in my
Etsy shop.
