SPARKLE STARS QUILT BLOCK
Sparkle Stars is here! CLICK HERE and download your copy - you'll get an email with the PDF file too.
Sparkle Stars block was inspired by all sparkling glitter ornaments, they were always my absolutely favorite when I was little. It's a really simple block, perfect for beginner quilters. It measure 12" finished size and you will make 2-at-a-time Half Square Triangle blocks and 4-at-a-time Flying Geese blocks.
I'm using prints from my newest collection with Andover Fabrics, Winged Garden. It's now available for all quilt shops to order and ships mid 2024 (YAY!)
I'm so excited to start sewing with it! All these lovely colors just make me so happy and I hope they inspire you to sew beautiful quilts :)
Fabric A - Renewal Rhythms. Color: Honeydew.
Fabric B - Dewdrop. Color: Rustic Radiance.
Fabric C - Dewdrop. Color: Sunlit Siesta.
Fabric D - Renewal Rhythms. Color: Midnight.
Fabric E - Dewdrop. Color: Rustic Delight.
Here are some versions of the block using different prints of Winged Garden fabric:
