Links
$ 12.40
I love the illusion of interlocking frames around the star blocks in my Links quilt. This pattern is written with two different size options. The smaller, twin-sized version was featured in the Sept/Oct 2012 issue of Fons and Porter Love of Quilting. Since then I have had so many requests for a larger size that I decided to include a queen-sized version in the pattern. One of my favorite things about this design is that it looks hard...but isn't!

Galaxy
$ 12.40
Galaxy is a beautiful alternating block design using two types of blocks, one with a red star and one with a blue star.

It’s a fun optical illusion, easy to make and even easier to admire.
