Lemoyne Trails

Straight from our Certified Instructor Pam Goggans, (the mastermind behind our Blazing Lemoynes Technique Sheet and Flying Swallows pattern) we have another home run of a Lemoyne Star pattern! Designed as a companion pattern for our Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star and Square Squared tools, Lemoyne Trails is an excellent stash-buster of a project. Simply choose 10-12 fat quarters, two contrasting colors for your background, and a border fabric then you'll be ready to get started on your very own Lemoyne Trail quilt project.

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. Because of the color placement and the different angles in the triangles, the interesting interlocking circles appear and the second star block disappears into the circles. It’s a fun optical illusion, easy to make and even easier to admire.

This is a really fun and easy scrap project, and I’d be willing to bet you’ve got just the perfect fabrics in your stash for this one! For each fan, you will use two rectangles and two squares, one that’s fun and colorful, and one in your background fabric.

Country Fair
$ 12.40
Country Fair is a scrap version of a traditional Carpenter’s Wheel block. This project is constructed with Flying Geese units, Diamond Square units and Four Patch units instead of the usual diamond shapes. Using Deb’s Wing Clipper I and Square Squared tools will give you perfectly shaped and sized units every time. This means you’ll have crisp seams and great points and a border that actually fits the center part of the quilt! A super scrap project that looks so much harder to make than it actually is to construct.

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!

- Required tools: Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star, Tucker Trimmer 3, and Wing Clipper 1

Crown Jewels
$ 12.40
This difficult looking pattern is a cinch using the Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star tool and construction process. The units are strip pieced and assembled with no “Y” seams. Pieced units are trimmed for high precision so matching seams and keeping points becomes a snap! A fast and easy project with the right tool!
