Hi Quilty friends! I'm sharing my finished Confetti Star Quilt. I think this quilt is quite awesome as it is purple plus has unicorns - a magical combination!!!
Confetti Star is a pattern included that was in my Fat Quarter Shop - Sew Sampler box. I love Tula Pink's Pinkerville fabric so it was a "must make" project for me!
Do you make most of the Sew Sampler projects or do add the fabric to your stash for a different project?
I was a bit worried about all the points matching up, but I made sure to use pins so everything matched! Hooray!
The original Confetti Star Pattern is 48.5" x 48.5". I wanted mine larger so I added (3) sets of borders and now it is 66.5" x 66.5". Border 1 (white / mist) cut at 2.5" , Border 2 (Seabreeze) cut at 3.5", Border 3 (Purple Pinkerville) cut at 4.75".
I did splurge on the backing for the Pinkerville Unicorn fabric as it was just perfect! Plus lots of unicorns is always the best answer!

Thanks for posting this finish. Love it! I have not started mine yet, but I purchased extra Pinkerville fabric to add borders, too. In addition, I purchased Pinkerville fabric for the backing. I have the whole thing together to get started on, probably after Christmas. I do make most of the Sew Sampler patterns. I think the majority of them awesome!
ReplyDeleteI just finished mine and I am trying to figure out how to quilt it. I am keeping mine the 48" to fit above the fireplace and add a bit of color
