Superstar Baby Quilt :: Their Take

If you've stopped by here recently then you just might have seen this quilt. I made it as a free pattern for Moda to help promote my line, a stitch in color. Well, I also teach the pattern at Stitch Lab as a series class and recently had my first opportunity to guide a few students through the making of the quilt.
I'm not exaggerating when I say that I was bowled over by what they made...and I think you will be too.

This is Jane's version. She decided to craft her star out of the Kaffe Fassett stripes available at Stitch Lab. Amazing, huh? Her background print is a simple polka dot of brown on ochre and the binding is a repeat of one of the striped fabrics found in the star.

Great backing choice as well.
I'm not done though showing off student creations. Check out Jean's Superstar Baby Quilt.

She too made the star from the Kaffe Fasset stripes, but her placement of the stripes gives the top a different kind of movement than Jane's.
Guess what she picked for backing.

Could that be the Dali's Lines from very own collection?
There were two other versions of the quilt made in the class, but sadly, I only have pictures of one of them. Not so sadly, actually rather impressively, one of the other versions was also made by Jane, who's motto must be, "Me sleep? Why would I do that?"

So, there you have it. my first time teaching this pattern and I think it went pretty darn well. If you're local or think you might be sometime this summer, check out the schedule of classes at Stitch Lab because I'll be teaching this again.
