The star in this quilt is the Adorn star from the book Simply Retro. I’ve been slowly making the quilts in this book, and here’s my version of this one. It was a one star mini quilt, but I wanted to make it into a baby size quilt so I added more white space around it, and then a few flying geese for a bit of interest.
I enjoyed piecing this star, and think that a whole quilt made out of them would be lovely. I’ve got two more quilts to go in this book, and actually they are both almost complete. (I made them both smaller).
I’ve already got my eyes on another book that I’d like to go through next, as I’ve quite enjoyed this project.

i have been inspired by your quilting through a book– I too hope to do this in 2018 with the book Quilt Giving by Deborah Fisher. I am interested to see which book interests you next.

So pretty! I love the simplicity of the design. I tend to get complicated to my detriment! Thank you for inspiring me!

Love your version in all navy. Your progress through the book has helped me see patterns a bit better, helping me imagine them a bit differently than as pictured.
Colleen says
Beautiful ! I was thinking along the same lines as commenter Angela. You have truly made the patterns in the book unique with your style.

It's been fun watching you work through the book and I'm totally excited to hear which book you picked next! Sunday Morning? I know that one was recommended a lot when you were making the original decision. And it would be my pick!
