Le Moyne Star Sampler

In "Quiltemagasinet" No 2, 2008 I found a pattern ("Sømmelige Stjerner") and fabric I liked a lot. But I did not like the way the star was done. When I saw the Le Moyne Star (Åttebladrose) at Lappemakeriet I knew how I wanted it to be.

For this sampler I used Paper Pieces, 3" squares, 3" 8-point Diamond and 3" Half Square. This was not the way to do it for me, so I need to figure out a different way to make this block.




The beautiful fabric was purchased at Kathrines Quiltestue.

This sampler will be given as a birthday present for my sons Great Grandmother.
