The Leymoyne star or 8-pointed star really shines in this scrappy sofa throw quilt. A 9-patch block has been used for its simplicity against the star blocks and you can tell by looking at the star points that Karel took her time to make sure each one was pieced accurately.The addition of circular quilting in the center of the 9-patches helps to soften the pattern. The floral border fabric set against a warm brown background completes the look. The versatility of a sofa throw size means you can throw it over a chair, the back of a sofa or fold it across the foot of your bed so it’s always ready to cuddle up in.

The Dresden plate pattern is a beloved favorite among quilt lovers and it’s a great way to use up those scraps that quilters have too many of.

Karel developed a love of quilting and flowers from her maternal Grandmother and both are reflected in this new design. Five blocks set on point each feature a different type of wild flower. The flowers and leaves are done in wool appliqué and have hand embroidery details added. Each background square is a different reproduction fabric for added interest. The triple sashing surrounds the blocks with a square in square block as the cornerstones. The hand wool appliqué and quilting complete this quilt perfectly.
