Friendly Stars – The Bonnie and Camille jelly roll quilt

I’m finally getting around to sharing this version of the Friendly Stars Quilt!ย ย  When I designed this quilt I couldn’t decide if I wanted it scrappy or non scrappy so I did both ๐Ÿ™‚ย  You can find the original Friendly Stars quilt here.

I’ve actually attempted to post this quilt several times but never liked the photos.ย ย  Finally calling it good enough and putting it out in to the quilty world.

Friendly Stars is a jelly roll quilt pattern and you can pick up a copy in my shop.ย  And then decide for yourself, scrappy or non scrappy ๐Ÿ˜‰

I used a Little Ruby Jelly roll for my version of this quilt. ย  I’m finding myself reaching for reds in my quilting more and more lately.ย  I love the contrast reds and pinks adds to a quilt.

Friendly Stars is quilted with the zig zag stitch. ย  I use my walking foot on the multi stitch option for this quilting effect.ย  You can still see the lines I marked on this quilt using the Hera Marker. ย  I’m really loving the Hera Marker for quilting lately. ย  My lines end up much more accurate than when I tape a guide to my walking foot.ย  These lines are spaced about 3/4in apart.
