Summer Solstice pattern(new)

Description

The Summer Solstice instructions teach a strip piecing technique that expands on Quiltworx traditional foundation paper piecing approach to complete lone star units. Strips are sewn onto foundation paper to complete what is called a Strip Set. After the strip sets are completed, they are cut apart, rearranged, and resewn into a diamond star point.

The Summer Solstice star was designed using 3 strips for the strip piecing. It incorporates a paper pieced New York Beauty (NYB) block and the general assembly process was designed with no Y-Seams. It uses yardage very efficiently at just over 7 yards of fabric for the top.

In this pattern you will receive enough foundation papers to complete a 60″x60″ quilt. This pattern is compatible with the Quiltster app, so you can color your quilt to suit your own imagination and get yardage information to purchase accordingly (see the example in our gallery!)
