| Design Source - Description | I made this checkered star in the 80's from Jenny Beyers book of blocks and borders. It is made with navy, lavender and white. I loved the quilt and it got a lot of attention including being selected by pictured in Ladies circle patchwork quilts in August 1991. However the navy fabric faded quickly and the quilt had to be put away to prevent further damage. |
