If a night sky full of stars sounds like your kind of quilt, this free Starry Night pattern is a real charmer. Big eight pointed stars stretch across the design in soft navies, creams and warm golden touches, with pretty little crosses tucked in between them. At 51" x 62.5" it makes a lovely throw for the sofa or a sweet quilt for a special someone.
Here is why this one is worth making:
- Those big stars are so satisfying to piece. They come together from simple shapes, yet the finished quilt looks intricate and full of movement, which is the best kind of surprise.
- It plays beautifully with light and dark. Setting the crisp stars against a softly mixed background is what gives the quilt its lovely glow, like stars against a night sky.
- The size is so friendly. At 51" x 62.5" it is quick enough to feel achievable, yet generous enough to curl up under or gift with love.
