More Feathered Stars

Here is the next group of three feathered stars for the Radiant Stars wall hanging. 




I pulled a different light blue for this star.

I'm trying to have different fabrics in the stars and in the placement of color values.

The pattern for Radiant Blues is found in the January/February 2007 issue of Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting magazine and was designed by Marsha McCloskey. I'm foundation paper piecing my feathered stars using the 16" pattern from Threaded Quilting Studio.

Lovely blocks. How many do you need for your quilt?
It's nice to have warm weather again. I'll bet the farm is busy. We just saw a field being tilled yesterday.

Congratulations on placing at the quilt show, Gretchen. The ribbons are well deserved. Your quilts are amazing! Star Dance is amazing!! There is so much movement in the quilting . I bet it is even more striking in person. I am so glad you will be enjoying it on your bed this summer.
