I have posted about projects out of this book before, as it was a year long program called "Anniversary Club" put on my a quilt shop for Thimbleberries. The program sent out a kit once a month of each project in this book. If you are interested in the other projects I have completed from this book you can read them here. If you want to read about the process of making the quilt, you can click and read about it here.
This project is called "Star & Chain". I fell in love with it, mainly from this picture. It is one of my favorites from the book.
This is a picture of the layout of the block. Was a little complicated to do and put together when all the pieces were cut out and made.
These are just some of the pieces that made the frame around the star in the middle.
This also is the making of the frames.
These are the little triangles that were cut off of the frames. I have to think of something to do with all of these piles of leftovers.
This is one thought of using up the triangles, but pin wheels are not my favorite to make. Remember this was done last year. The triangles are still technically in a pile, just now piles in a bag.
These are finished star units.
Here is the making of the rows, showing how the framing goes together around the stars.
This is a finished flimsy.
Final and finished product. I think my picture is as good as the one in the book!
This is a close up of the quilting and binding.
Finally this picture shows the backing I choose.
