Magic Stars sewn up!

      Over 2 years ago, I posted the blocks called Magic Stars that I found from the Joyful Quilter that does not seem to be there any more. I finally got them sewn, up on the wall and then web sewn. I had a great piece of blue for the border. For a very simple and large block made from 10" squares, I really like the way it turned out.


     I think I have a layer cake that I will cut up into another one!

  2. Some digging around with Google turned up this YouTube video which has instrutions for the Magic Stars:

    I don't know whether or not it is by the original designer. Dot

  3. Aha! Searching on my own computer, I found this link I'd saved, to the original pattern by Aneela Hooley. It's a PDF that's still available.

  4. That looks like a great pattern for tone on tone and small print fabrics. It would probably look great in batiks too.

  6. That is quite striking. It is a pretty quilt top. The blue border really sets it off well.
