Product Description
This beautiful full size quilt was inspired by an antique. It is entirely hand pieced, using only one diamond shape throughout. Each of the stars have three petals of red, blue or yellow with three green leaves and a hand appliqued center circle. The hexagons that make up the background are pieced with cream and white colored diamonds. The quilting is done by hand with a heavier perle cotton, giving it even more old style charm. There are many, many fabrics in this quilt, too many to count. The quilt is 80 by 90 inches with a zigzag edging on the top and bottom. I would recommend hand washing for this piece. There is a sleeve on the back should you decide you want to hang it. What a glorious display this would make on a large entry wall.
Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
This quilt won an honorable mention at the 2009 New York State Fair. I call it Grandma's Starflower Garden because the white hexagons remind me of the traditional grandmother's flower garden pattern. It took me three years to complete. Pieces of it kept me occupied on a long plane trip to Alaska. These colorful scraps of fabric and I shared many joyful moments and they comforted me through a sorrowful time in my life. Quilts are like that.
