I chose to do these little Sawtooth Stars with the tiny pieces cut between 1¼ and 2 inches square and then pieced together to form the star pattern in colours that would tone with our given border fabric.

I think the colours blend quite well and the finished piece measures 22 inches (56cm) square. There was not enough border fabric over to do the binding so I chose one of the fabrics from one of the stars.
I quilted it in an all over feather pattern perhaps better seen from the back.
Thank you for visiting!
Happy quilting,
I really love this quilt! The feathers work so well with the design.
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear friend, still not too sure about the feathers. I even thought of ripping them out and doing something else but you know what it's like when you've finished something.....
DeleteHi Carolyn your work is lovely and I enjoyed reading you blog. You musy have lots of patience to make such tiny pieces. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting Susan; the tiny pieces were a bit tricky and frustrating at times but rewarding at the end!
DeleteI love the quilting on the border. What an awesome effect!
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan, simple straight line quilting does give a nice effect sometimes!
