Here we see pieced stars with tumbling block border. There are eight pointed stars, each one touching the next one, and each star done in a single fabric (usually). The white background with a zigzag border is pieced from the fabrics used in the stars.


Techniques: Hand and machine pieced, machine quilted
Credit Line: Gift of Kim Waide
