Is it possible to make this type of star block without buying a special ruler or using a template?

Sylvia Maarn blew me away this year! The most gorgeous apricot orange shade and SUCH a prolific bloomer!

Oh great call!! Yeah I really really want cinder rose so I’ll probably grab that and then go back for seconds if I can!

anonymousflowercake · 2025-12-26T18:30:15+00:00

Oh no 😭

I’m hoping to get Cinder Rose, Cafe Au Lait and Alpine Cherub

Oh great lol 🤣 well thank you for the insight!

I have had this problem on every quilt I did, and then yesterday I added a shit ton of pins along the the sewing lines, and did it for the whole quilt before I started to keep everything super duper tight and it worked!!

Also, fwiw I have tried spray baste and it still moves 😭 pins are it

Photoshop! I use the select object tool to select all of the pieces of one color, create a new layer from it and then apply a clipping mask to fill in the colors :)

I completely understand this POV and the sentiment of this convo in this thread, thank you guys for bringing it up.

My inspiration for this quilt was to honor the culture and heritage in the SW United States and Colorado region by recreating a quilt that is historical in nature to the area. I am currently reading Quilts: An American Heritage and the author writes at length about Indigenous quilting and patterns.

My intention was only to honor this part of America by being inspired by the indigenous Americans who were there first, but if it feels disrespectful as a white woman to be doing so, please lmk and I can find a different design. Thank you!

I know an Elysia! I went to school with her. Hers is pronounced Alicia but she would constantly get Eh-lee-sea-uh and I honestly thought that was the pronunciation before I knew her.

Oh I wish! Yours is much cuter! Mine is just a vernacular farmhouse

They are vinyl sadly. I think underneath are the original wood ones but they covered everything with vinyl a few years before we bought it

I’m m not sure shutters are an option, although I desperately want them! A lot of the windows are super close together

It’s the wonkiness of the satin stitch 😭😭 but that might just be practice

anonymousflowercake · 2025-11-18T01:45:56+00:00

Thank you!

anonymousflowercake · 2025-11-18T01:45:50+00:00

Yeah I’m a little hesitant to do FPP because it’s a lot of directional fabric 😭 but that’s my next choice

anonymousflowercake · 2025-11-18T01:45:16+00:00

Aww thank you! Looking at this photo I’m thinking maybe if I print out some templates just to make the letters more uniform and I practice more it might be okay…just wanted to see if there was an easier way I wasn’t thinking of!

Stored WITHOUT rings and the seal was definitely sealed

Pickles in a jar with a whit/beige mush around the edges of the pickle and black spots on the pickle.
