A Stunning Home Accent or a Wonderfully Creative Gift

These last couple of weeks I’ve been sharing the series of patterns accompanying my newest fabric collection, CHILL. Last week brought us Mega Star 2 and Those Trees 2, and the week prior we got to see Winter Windows. This week I’m excited to share Winter Star with you – a pattern you may recognize however this time featuring the Chill collection for a simply stunning display.

0,Winter Star

Winter Star is a captivating wall quilt that would do wonderfully as a beautiful eye-catcher over a mantel during Christmas time. The design appears as if the beams from the star are slightly curved, but in fact they are straight lines that flow so smoothly they seem curved. This pattern uses the Foundation Paper Piecing Technique, and the resulting visual effect is all at once striking and dazzling.

I originally created this pattern for a cooperation partner and designed it as a type of advent calendar. We picked 24 fat eighths, and every day the participants got a fat eighth in their box. At the end of the process you had all the materials needed to create the quilt.

Winter Star became so popular that I brought it back and reprinted it with my newest fabric line, Chill. So, why not be inspired by this beautiful pattern’s original intention and create a very unique, thoughtful and fun gift for your favorite quilter? You can choose 24 fat eighths as called for in the pattern’s materials list and give it to a sewist friend as an advent calendar gift. They certainly won’t have seen anything like it!

You can buy it right now or shop with our discount offer we will send you this weekend.

Stay tuned! We’ll be having a huge pattern discount sale July 10th-12th. Sign up for the Zen Chic newsletter to stay updated!
