Synopsis

The star -- the most popular of all quilting motifs -- is illustrated and charted in all its hundreds of imaginative variations. Carol LaBranche, author of the best-selling Patchwork Pictures, fulfills a basic need of today's quilter in her drawings of variable and pieced star patterns, from four-pointed to multi-pointed stars, feathered, and lone stars. Precisely printed on grids, these patterns, including such favorites as Star of Bethlehem, Columbia, and Stars & Stripes, are easily copied. Special directions and drawing are provided for drafting such difficult designs as the five-pointed star, the hexacon/six-pointed star, and the Lemon or LeMoyne star. An extra bonus is the 13 full color photos of classic star quilts, each of which is charted in black and white drawings.
