My lovely friend has decided that she wants to make a quilt for her daughter. I have advised her that quilting is addictive and once she starts she will be unable to stop. It may even take over her life (and her cupboards) but she has chosen not to heed my warnings!!
So she dug out this beautiful photo of a Star of Bethlehem from an Architectural Digest cover and we are going to recreate the pattern. It lives in the Shelburne Museum and was sewn by a Sioux woman sometime in the late 19C. How gorgeous is it! It was part of a kaleidoscope exhibition held there in 2006.
