For this quilt I have used a traditional Western-style pieced star block as the background but in bright, Indian colours. I quilted the triangular parts of the star with straight lines then I stitched Japanese kamon designs in the open squares. All fabrics and threads are cotton.

Lovely, Helen! The simplicity and the beautiful stitching make the quilt.
Helen this is a lovely piece. The purple and pink remind me a sari I had seen recently. This piece is absolute precision with the piecing and machine quilting. Stunning.
