This top was made as a sample for teaching the quilt at Studio Stitch. I chose fabric from my 30s reproduction box because the stuff in that box needs to move on out of here.

The pattern is Lucky Stars, by Atkinson Designs, which I’ve made many times. (Studio Stitch will be getting it in soon if you need a copy.) The pattern is well designed and illustrated. Although it’s intended for fat quarters, there are instructions for using scraps as well.

I made the 60 x 60 size and added 5″ borders top and bottom because Flying Horse Farms needs quilts 60 x 70. It took about a week to piece it, but it was quite a busy week so usually this is faster.

What’s your favorite easy quilt pattern?
