Brought to us by the world renowned fabric company Hoffman Fabrics, this stunning lone star design by Jean Impey is a quilt you will want to make. It was originally designed to show off one of the company’s fabric lines.
The finished quilt measures approximately 62.5 inches x 62.5 inches and the pattern was written with hand dyes in mind. That is important because either side of a hand dyed fabric can be used. The designer explains this in her tips section of the pattern.
This is definitely not a pattern for a beginner. One nice thing about is that even though you might think that there are some set in seams, but there are not any. I don’t know about you, but I really don’t like set in seams. As you can see, there are some areas of appliqué as well and the templates for those are included.
