Lace Star Quilt Pattern Book by Daniela Stout of Cozy Quilt Designs

The Lace Star book gives you a quilt along project, showing you how to make this gorgeous star quilt in 8 simple steps. No step is hard, but the results are stunning. Finishes about 88 inches x 88 inches. Great with the Strip Tube or Strip Tube Junior rotary cutting rulers (not included). The steps to making this stunning and wonderfully large quilt are not as difficult as you might think. The amazing design is comprised of four-patches, half-square triangles, diagonally-pieced squares (made easy with the tube technique), and quarter square triangles, finished off by some solid blocks for filler. Plus, the blocks are all straight set. That’s all you need to do to make a stunning Lace Star of your own. In this book, Daniela gently steps you through each of the different blocks to make all the four-patches in one step, all the half-square triangles in another, and so on. Eight different chapters create perfect stopping points if you want to do this as a Block of the Month or a Quilt Along. Or you might choose to power through the chapters and make all the blocks in no time at all. A little about fabrics for this quilt: With thirteen different prints, this quilt is rich with complexity. To make picking fabrics easier, just think of collecting three different colors, each with various values. One color is the background, the second leans to the darker hues (in the sample it is brown), and third adds the punch (in the sample it is blue). The inside cover gives you a full-color swatch page, but you can pick the colors you want to make.
