Star Power
Star Power 65 x 78 inches Quilt of Valor #205 |
Star Power was created with a variety of leftovers from other Quilts of Valor. The star centers were pulled out of the 6.5 inch square bin, and most of the star points were bonus HSTs from a recently finished QOV. The sashing was cut from backing trimmings of another QOV.
Very little fabric goes to waste in my sewing room, and what scraps I cannot use, I give to others. Typically, I don't sew with anything smaller than 2.5 inches. This quilt was an exception to that as the blue sashing is 1.5 inches cut and 1 inch finished.
The star blocks are 12 inches finished.
I really love this one, as with all your quilts! Just perfect for a veteran!
ReplyDeletethis quilt is perfection--it's fun to let your eyes roam and see all the different centers...I like the two stripes but in diff directions!
ReplyDeleteYet another masterpiece Nancy! You certainly have an eye for pulling these together. Beautiful job.

ReplyDeleteThat sure doesn't look like a leftover quilt to me. It's gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteStars are beautiful. I live in an area that is dart enough to see many true stars. Im glad they figure prominently for Veterans
