Make this Feathered Star Medallion Quilt (Finished size: 90" x 90") The Feathered Star central panel is surrounded by 4 pieced borders: a Dogtooth border, a Le Moyne Star border containing sixteen 9" blocks, a Fan border containing forty-four 4-1/2" blocks (8 more Fan blocks are included in the central panel and outer border), and a Sawtooth border containing 212 two-triangle squares that are 1-1/2" finished. Three plain borders are also included in the design. Colors: A rainbow variety of assorted pastel 1930s reproduction prints are needed for colored areas. Buying fat quarter yards is a good way to get the variety of prints needed for this scrappy look. Quilting techniques used in this quilt are rotary cutting; machine pieced straight, set-in, partial and curved seams; bias-strip piecing; machine paper foundation piecing; and machine appliqué.
