The Star Petals Quilt Is Completed
The pattern, "Star Petals" came from the book, Scrap Basket Bounty by Kim Brackett.
I pulled squares from my 5" squares, 4 1/2" squares and 2 1/2" squares that are all sorted into bins
to create this project. I added an extra row to the top and bottom so the quilt wasn't square like it
was in the instructions.
After making the quilt top, the bins were still full. I could probably make ten quilts and not see much
reduction in the collection.
I found a flat sheet for $2.00 at a thrift shop. After I laundered it and checked for quality,
it became the backing for this quilt.
With the price of fabric escalating, a person has to look for a bargain somewhere.
This will most likely end up being a donation quilt.
