New Quilt Pattern: Tropical Sky, a Pieced Star Quilt

July 10, 2020July 10, 2020 Post a comment

Hi friends!

When I was the given the opportunity to work with a signature line with Island Batik, I had been hoping to be able to debut the line and all my new patterns at Quilt Market. Of course, this past May, Quilt Market was cancelled. So I have been slower than normal in releasing all the new patterns I designed using the line Tiki Punch.

Tiki Punch is due to arrive in shops in late fall. Isn’t it great? So bright and fun! A happy line of fabrics!

But it is kind of fun, releasing quilt patterns one at a time. This way each one gets it’s own day to shine!

Today I am introducing you to Tropical Sky.

I have always loved those old fashion star quilts – you may have seen them in the pink and brown with stars going in vertical columns separated by width of a print. I love those quilt!

Even though I am truly more of a “bright” fabric girl, I love that pink and brown.

Tropical Sky is a modern take on those quilts.

This quilt may look complicated but it really isn’t! Just a pieced star block with 2 different corners, set on point. 

A striking design only using 5 fabrics.
