Mom made this quilt top many years ago. It is based on the Pin Wheel pattern in the Quiltmaker magazine July/August 1998. Karen had this magazine and if I remember correctly mom bought the fabric and started the project while visiting her on one of our many trips. Although it looks correct I think it is missing a row in the middle of quilt where diamonds are formed instead of triangles. The fabric is a strip with lion, tigers, giraffes and other safari animals. It is a great way how stars are formed with a strip fabric.
This was my first quilt where I used the straight ruler on the mid-arm system. I used it to go around the star and in the triangles increasing and decreasing. It was great quilt to learn and practice on using a ruler. My Bailey doesn't have large quilting bad and took a bit to learn in keeping the ruler steady.
Size 66x75
