| Patriotic Stars |
I committed to donate a patriotic quilt to an organization in GA that works with Veterans in 2025. I decided on No Point Stars and recruited some quilty friends to make a block or two. Quilty friends are just the best. 💗
I saw this layout on Instagram (I think), and just had to re-create it. Of course, I can't find that post now to credit the original maker. I love the oversized stars mixed in.
I pieced the top at a January quilt retreat, and then my friend Michelle generously quilted waves on it for me. Finished it with a striped binding (my favorite). We even had a bright sunny Saturday late January for a quick photo session. Thank you Mr. Quilt Holder and Supervisor Sophie.
Sophie is always ready for a photo op and a test drive. Patriotic Stars was subsequently donated to a local Quilts of Valor chapter after the timing didn't work out with the original organization. I'm already working on another quilt for the local group for 2026. The star blocks we used are No Point Stars by Allison at Cluck Cluck Sew.
Size: ~60" x 70"
Blocks: 10 1/2" and 20 1/2"
Fabric: Red, white, blue & gray from the stash

Your Patriotic Star quilt is beautiful. Red, blue and white work so well together. It looks like cute Sophie has approved the quilt.
