Disappearing Four Patch Star

Ever since completing other projects with the cut up piecework, I was looking for another variation. When Jennie Doan recently gave a summer workshop using her original Disappearing Four Patch pattern from Block Magazine and added star points, it piqued my interest. The oversized blocks eliminated the need for sashing strips. I decided to use a teal tonal print for the star. The possibilities for other block color combinations seemed endless. The participants in the workshop all had beautiful blocks to share. It was hard to decide which I liked best. I free motioned a floral design between the units and assorted straight line quilting in the borders on my domestic sewing machine. The quilt soon made it's way to a new home.
