A Layer Cake For A Cozy Sofa Throw

Especially For Large Print Fabrics

Feature a large star, framed by additional star or block layers, effectively a star within a star within a star. This layered star effect gives dramatic depth and visual interest to the quilt. Find a layer cake set aside for your next quilt, for large, forgiving blocks perfect for beginners to sew.

 

 

Fussy cut favorites that you always love to look at, or showy large print fabrics, as the each star is big enough to let the fabric’s motifs show off beautifully. A layer cake or left over ten inch squares halve construction time, with minimal cutting, half square tringles nest together in no time.

Whether you choose bright florals, vintage-style prints, modern geometrics or seasonal fabrics, the large star layout its all about the fabric. The perfect Christmas quilt that comes together quick and just in time for the season.

The Triple Star Barnstar Quilt pattern is any fabric. Kathy Schwartz of Tamarack Shack shared this striking Barstar quilt in festive fabric.

Amy Gibsons Triple Barnstar works well as a throw or bed-size quilt so you can choose  to make a throw to drape the sofa, a lap quilt or a full bedspread without compromising on the striking star layout. Choose fabrics for any season such the quilt below found on Pinterest for great fabric inspiration.
